How Can I Install Device Drivers Manually In Win 7?

Anonymous

When I connect my Android Tablet to the PC via USB, Windows 7 installs the wrong driver automatically. I have the correct driver in a folder but when I try to update in Device Manager > "The best driver for your device is already installed". If I uninstall the driver the device disappears from Device Manager.

How can I locate the device & install the driver without Windows interfering?

    During the driver update process select  Browse my computer for driver updates.

    Then select Let me pick from a list of device drivers ob my computer

    Then select Have Disk

    Then Browse **** to where you have the new driver stored.

    Select it.

    I'm sorry it didn't work out.

    What driver are you trying to install?
