Device driver in Windows Vista can not be installed with setup.exe because lack of privilege. Here are the suggestion to facilitate device driver installation in Windows Vista.
1. Put attached device driver files (uncompressed) in the CD. The suggested path are:
\driver\vista_x64
\driver\vista_x86
2. Describe the instructions below in the Installation Guide:
(a) For user connects to Internet: Our device driver has already put on Windows Update. Vista will automatically search Windows Update for proper driver. (CD useless in this case)
(b) For user does not connect to Internet: Vista will hint user puts the CD in. After that, Vista will automatically serch CD for proper driver.
