    Default How to make my Windows 2003 Server *non Plug-n-play*??

    Gurus,

    How do I set a Windows Server 2003 box *not* to look for Plug-n-play devices
    when it boots up? I have some NICs that I want it *not* to detect while I
    get rid of the drivers for the old one. Long story, but my short-term goal
    is to make the system *non Plug-n-play* while I do what I need to do.

    You disable this in BIOS, and the way to do this may of course differ
    between the computers. Please look in your BIOS manual.
