I am running Vista Home Premium edition. Build 5384 with an Admin account. If
I try to Install an INF file I am get a "cannot copy file to destination
directory" - that is the the system32/drivers directory.

Is that expected? If so how can I install a driver - I get a similar -
Access denied error using the DIFxApi.

Thanks
 
The driver in question is a Filter driver
