    How to prevent Windows from installing audio drivers for monitors?


    Yes, I went to the control panel, advanced system settings and in hardware I've disabled the automatic device installation. I've then went to device manager and uninstalled the monitor audio driver/device. I've then restarted the PC and guess what? The cheeky fucker installed the fucking driver again?
    Is there any way to prevent Windows from doing this and make it suck ever so slightly less?

    Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.

    If you having an issue installing a driver that worked before you formatted or wont install on a fresh build, sometimes this means hardware damage
