Trying to install Oxford OX16CF950 compactflash/PCMCIA adapter. In XP, got to
the scare message about drivers not been digitally signed for windows
compatability. So I stopped the installation and attempted to find updated
drivers with no luck. Now I cannot get the scare message so I can continue to
install the drivers. Even tried a "restore" with same results.

Next time, read the installation instructions. There might not
even be a Microsoft digitally signed driver file. Note that it
is the device maker for programs the drivers...not Microsoft. It
will provide a Windows certification if it meets the standards.

And if the manufacturer pays for the privilege.

I am not trying to get the official signed drivers. I am trying to get the
unofficial version installed.
The 1st time I got the error/stop warning message.
This next installation attempt, I would like the error messasge to show up,
but it won't.

HOW DO I get it to SHOW.

Go to Control Panel and double click on System.
Click on the Hardware tab.
Click on the Driver signing button.
See if it's set to Warn.
