By default, Windows 7 will search for drivers on Windows Update first before searching any pre-configured drivers on your system. This becomes painfully slow at times, and it's especially frustrating if all you're doing is changing which USB port you'd like to plug your mouse in. Fortunately, there is a way to change the order in which Windows 7 attempts to find drivers:
1. Search for "advanced system settings" and select "hardware".
2. In the "hardware" sub-menu, select "device installation settings".
3. Select "no, let me choose what to do" and select "install driver software from Windows Update if it is not found on my computer".
This will ensure that Windows will search Windows Update last, and trust me, it's a lot faster to get things done!
