Never say never, at least not for drivers

    I was being repeatedly prompted to install a driver that I didn't actually
    have access to at the time so I clicked on the setting to never be prompted
    again for this device. Now, I want to be prompted again. How do I get
    Vista x64 to go back to prompting me for the driver for this device? I
    tried uninstalling the driver in Device Manager but it still doesn't prompt
    me (it just puts a "!" next to the device in Device Manager and stays
    quiet).

    And loving it,

    Go to your OEM's or device manufacturer's website and get the latest driver.

    Return to Device Manager and delete the device, not the driver. Reboot and
    the computer should detect the device and ask you once again for the
    drivers.
