Any PCI device is PnP by very definition.
Legacy NT driver model for PCI hardware (based on HalAssignSlotResources)
is deprecated since Windows 2000 (7.5 years from now), and, if such a driver is
present in the OS, it will disable standby/hibernate features of the OS.
Nevertheless, I think it is still supported in Vista.
So, this is very, very dirty, and I should suggest to reconsider your "time
limitations" to detemine what is better - users cursing you for extremely dirty
driver which provides negative impact on the whole OS or delivering the driver
later a bit.
