Any thoughts on why the driver search (when installing a usb device) on windows 7 is woefully slow? Even when I click to disable trying to get a driver from windows update, it still takes 10min+ to either find a driver, or bail out.

Is there a way to speed this up, or alternately, disable windows trying to find drivers, so I can manually install them in device manager?
