Hi Mr. Trent:

As you mentioned below. If driver was signed by WHQL it will be installed
transparently when device plug-in.

My Driver was signed WHQL and we've obtained catalog file. Preinstall driver
by SetupCopyOEMInf() also work well (OEMxx.inf was created). But when I
plugged in my USB keyboard device, 'Find New Hardware Wizard' apeared. It
should installed driver transparently, shouldn't it?

Did I miss any thing in INF file, or somthing I forget to do?

Thanks.
