The driver searches for a hardware string device ID stored in saved to the registry of windows, listing all the hardware, and vendors, chipset, model number in some cases.
The driver while installing checks this string in the registry to see if the hardware exists first.

All hardware attached to the computer has a Hardware ID string stored in windows.
