Installing System Hardware Driver with NSIS?

flanque · 17th January 2005, 23:59

Hello,

I wish to use NSIS to install system hardware drivers, such that the hardware will appear in the Device Manager. I also will require to install software afterwards. I've used NSIS to install software on several projects, but not configuring a system to use drivers I provide to enable hardware.

The hardware is custom and the drivers are not part of Windows' default driver set (it's video surveillance drivers).

Is this possible with NSIS, or a combination of NSIS and something else?

The drivers themselves do not come with an installer, so that is why I am trying to do it myself.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
