We have a driver package that is installed by when our software is
installed. It is installed in to the Driver Store using the
DriverPackagePreinstall function. The drivers are for a USB communication
adapter for an industrial network. Because it is a custom driver class it
can't be tested by Microsoft' hardware lab. All the files are digitally
signed and the catalog file is signed as well. In most cases the driver
install fine when the USB adapter is plugged into the system.

We recently found a problem with a system that was taking 10 minutes to
search for the driver. We looked at the setupapi.log file and found that the
system was scanning a DVD we happened to have in the drive. The DVD happened
to have a lot of files as well as 270 INF files on it. I did some research
and found that only the path specified in the
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion DevicePath is supposed to be
searched. The only path specified was %SystemRoot%\INF. Our INF file was in
the Windows\INF directory and that was the INF file that was used after the
search.

My question is why does the DVD get searched when it isn't specified in the
search path? Is there a way to stop it (this doesn't happen on Vista
systems). Also, the setupapi.log file gives many warnings indicating that the
driver isn't signed when all files and the catalog file are correctly signed.
Is this a bug that will be fixed or is the fact that the file is signed not
detected for some reason?

See part of the setupapi.log file below.

Thanks,
