Re: [Xen-users] Release 0.9.9 of GPL PV Drivers for Windows

[Florian Manschwetus <florianmanschwetus@xxxxxx>]

I have unpacked and signed the driver, but when i try to install it with 
the installer (deselecting all except install drivers), I get in details 
"Windows Vista doesn't support automatic driver updating"
So what is the best way, to get the drivers updated?
