Can we use the "F6" or "Load Driver option" available during OS i

Hello All

Can we use the "F6" or "Load Driver option" available during OS install any
and all PNP drivers ?

If yes, what special stuff needs to be added in uninstall section so that we
donot get a blue screen saying CRITICAL_SERVICE_FAILED.

reason why i asked is When we install driver using the "F6" or "Load Driver
option", OS adds some special registry for these drivers in
hklm\CCS\criticaldevicedatabase.
How this content must be cleaned ?

In general the answer is no.

The real question is why do you want to do this? What scenario do you think
it will enable?
