Hi Tom,

thanks for the test results. I guess they were what you expected.
They do seem to point to something in the hot-unplug code that
Windows doesn't like. I'm a little confused by this thread,
do you get the same result with your force devfn change?

I'll try and get a test environment with Windows set up for myself.  Sorry
if you have answered this before, but which version of Windows are you
using and is it 32 or 64bit?
