6-38 Chapter 6 <strong>Installing</strong>, Managing, and Troubleshooting Hardware Devices and Drivers<br />

Scenario<br />

Questions<br />

You are an administrator working for Contoso, Ltd., a nationwide insurance company.<br />

You receive an e-mail from Darren Parker, one of your users, that says “After receiving<br />

authorization from the IT support staff, I purchased a sound card for my desktop computer<br />

running Windows XP Professional. The IT support staff created a temporary administrator<br />

account so that I could install the drivers for the card. I followed the instructions<br />

provided by the manufacturer for physically installing the sound card in the computer.<br />

After restarting Windows, I continued to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and canceled<br />

the Found New Hardware Wizard when it appeared. Then I inserted the CD-ROM<br />

that came with the sound card. The Setup program on the CD ran automatically and notified<br />

me that it would first install device drivers and then install other related applications.<br />

But then early during the installation, I received an error message, stating that the drivers<br />

I am trying to install are unsigned and cannot be installed. The Setup program ended<br />

with an error message. I have a big video presentation to finish today, and if I do not get<br />

this problem fixed in the next hour, I am totally hosed. Help!”<br />

1. What is the likely problem?<br />

2. What should you tell Darren to do to allow driver signing?<br />

3. If the IT staff had not provided Darren with a temporary administrator account,<br />

what might have prevented Darren from being able to allow driver signing?<br />

4. Aside from assigning Darren a temporary administrator account, in what two ways<br />

might the IT support staff allow Darren to install unsigned drivers?
