Thanks for the reply it helped me alot :) Yes I know I should not copy the
driver directly to the drivers folder. However I have been issued a driver
which the program must load (and unload) on demand, not the nicest solution
but I have not been given much choice :(.

Also I got a direct mail which also helped me. I was told that I had put the
code in the wrong place in the Xml (I had put it inside TARGETDIR
declaration).  The code should go directly into the <Product></Product>
node...
