Hi all!
does anybody know how i can install a windwos driver using c++?
i have an inf file and a sys file and want to install them.

in order to do this now i have to open the hardware manager, update the driver of my device an choose the inf file.

i want to do this automatically with a small qt-program.

thanks for help, and ask if you dont undertsand anything, my english isn't the best!

Take a look here: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/driver/install/difxtools.mspx.
Also, you can find more about this on whdc. MS even has an installer framework.

Eitherway you will need to use platform API.
