Can anyone remember...there are 2 files in Win98 that "remember" the drivers database. It was a trick in years past, that if you corrupted your drivers, you could "force" a rescan of the database by deleting these two. I though they ended in .idx and lived in the system folder, but I am hitting a dead wall and can't remember them.
Drvdata.bin and Drvidx.bin. They are located in the inf folder.
Drvdata.bin and Drvidx.bin ?
