I want to deploy a webcam driver that my users can install with a standard

account, not admin. How could I do that? We still use Win2000 on desktops

with Win2003 servers.

 

An open thought : I discovered that Windows installs a device without admin

rights and further asking if... the device driver is properly signed and of

compatible rank match with another installed device. E.g. if you plug a new

USB webcam and a USB webcam is already installed using the same driver and of

compatible rank match, Windows installs it.

 

Could the registry be pre populated with a webcam driver by, say group

policy deployment or login script? So that when a user plugs the webcam using

a regular account, Windows thinks this webcam has been previously installed,

and sets it up without admin rights...

 

Any toughts?
