I need a program to autoinstall any device driver from its INF-file.
Or info about setupx.dll's functions.

Well, in reality, there is already a program that does this. Actually, it isn't a program, it's more of a set of smaller directives and intructions pre-built into your windows operating system. As I just so complexly put it, Plug N Play. However,if you have hardware that you install yourself, that is not compatable with PnP sensing, you need to install the .inf files yourself. You could always write a program, but that would be pointless. Just install the driver yourself.

Steps.

1. Install the device physically.
2. When windows recognizes the device, choose to install the drivers from a disk.
3. Let the installation do it's thing.

Your done.

Well... It must be automatic :). My users don't want to install drivers manually.
