Hi!

I have a disk that contains some Windows drivers with the infamous 
OEMSETUP.INF file etc.

Is there a DOS program that you can run that will act on this file
and associated drivers and install them - FROM DOS ...

I realise this is in c:\windows\setup.exe, but is there (or has anyone 
written!) a separate program.

Any Freeware/Shareware/commercial program names appreciated.

Thanks!
Rick.
