Deactivate floppy Disk Device

[monivong]

Hi,

I'm kind of stucked with my problem. Hope anyone of you can solve the problem or give a hint!

The problem is, I'm trying to deactivate the Floppy Device in the Device manager!

Using Win32_SystemDriver class:
SELECT * FROM Win32_SystemDriver WHERE Name = 'Flpydisk'
with the StopService Method didn't succed!

I want to disable the floppy device temporarily and enable it again without rebooting.

Thanks for your suggestion in advance!

If it did not succeed then it's not supported. Try using the setupdi interfaces.
