Topic: Disabling Devices (*Automated!! :-))

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I know alot of us have to disable our wireless cards and other troublesome devices that cause issues

I created a stop/start script for all devices that I do not want enabled while I gig by using devcon

you can read up on it from microsoft here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311272

Heres the script I have for my machine
just simple batch file (.bat)

echo Killing The Wired Network Card
c:\winddk\7600.16385.1\Tools\devcon\amd64\devcon disable PCI\VEN_1969*
echo Killing The Wireless Network Card
c:\winddk\7600.16385.1\Tools\devcon\amd64\devcon disable PCI\VEN_168*
echo Killing The WebCam
c:\winddk\7600.16385.1\Tools\devcon\amd64\devcon disable USB\VID_04F2*
echo Killing On Board Sound Card
c:\winddk\7600.16385.1\Tools\devcon\amd64\devcon disable HDAUDIO\FUNC_01*
pause


write the same script but replace disable with enable to get your drivers going again.

Thanks,

Also you can use the SC Command to disable and enable serives as needed.
This can save you some time... when preparing for a gig.. Double click and your set..

Cheers
 
 
great link guys thanks
 
Im not a fan of game booster, at least not on my win.7 machine. Every time I have used it my system became unstable and VDJ would actually lose performance.
