XP + HID Keyboard Drivers

Just installed XP pro on a new hard drive and finished setting up dual boot to my previous install on a second hard drive. Now the Pro installation insists upon installing drivers for HID Keyboard every boot. I've tried going ahead and reinstalling from the add hardware wizard and from the CD. Either method gets rid of the found new hardware tray icon but windows will complain about finding new hardware upon rebooting again. Any ideas?

The keyboard is a Logitech G15 (2005 version with 18 g keys instead of the 2007 version with only 6) if it makes a difference. Googling also yields results relating to problems getting drivers to install the first time, haven't seen a result yet similar to my problem.

This happened to me once after a power surge. I didn't have my computer hooked up to a surge protector at the time (I know its dumb). And when the power went out my PC cut off.

Every time I rebooted after that I was prompted to install ALL of my drivers even though they were installed and working properly.

I had to uninstall and reinstall all my drivers to fix the problem.
Make sure you uninstall the driver Completely, then try to reinstall it. Also make sure to update to the latest driver via the company's website. Or you can go into DeviceManager, find your keyboard and click "Find Updated Drivers".

Haven't had windows prompt me to install it again after going through Device Manager, hopefully I won't have to go through this again later should I feel the need to unplug the keyboard :).

NudeRaider -- The visuals are good, the animation is terrible: the movement is off, the impacts in battle scenes have zero weight to it, the lip sync is right up uncanny valley. But yeah, considering what it is it's pretty good overall.

NimoStar -- And Pathfinding in SC1 was not *that* bad, the problem is that it was designed as a flat 2D game like WC1 (and it was in the alpha) and then switched to isometric without changing the base code. So its actually a flat game pretending to be isometric. With the custom competitive maps that use larger ramps and elevation, pathfinding is quite fixed.

NimoStar -- The unlocking and map choice was fine, but mostly in WoL - In HoTS the worst of all units are irrelevant because Kerrigan has infinite summon and stuff. And even in WoL the spaceship instakill map powers are better than units. If I could RTS in my RTS that'd be great.
