Hi,

I just played with the new GPL PV driver release a bit, and there's a
problem when running the included install.bat from a read-only device
(pvdriver.zip was extracted, and "burned" to virtual CD)

Cause of this problem:
During installation dpinst.exe is copied to the matching driver directory
(located on the install media) and executed there. Unfortunately this
fails (silently) when executing from CD.

Maybe it'd be better to copy both dpinst.exe and the driver directory to
%TEMP% and execute from there?

Bye,
  Marcel
