Identifying Driver association with Control Panel
Hope I'm in the right forum. Admin, if not please move.
==============================================
My ultimate objective is to identify loaded but unneeded drivers.
In this effort, I can use either driverquery or regedit to get a list of drivers on my system.
Now I would like to:
1) Identify which section of Control Panel controls which driver,
without having to manually open each section of Control Panel and track down the driver name.
Question:
Is there a program or easy way to identify which section of Control Panel handles which driver?
--------------------
2) The registry will tell me whether the driver is handled by the Kernel (for example).
However, my guess is M$ loads a lot of unneeded drivers -- SCSI Miniport for example where no SCSI exists.
Question:
How do I easily determine whether the Kernel is loading drivers Not necessary by my machine?
Thanks
David
