[SML] Windows Weirdness

[Jerry Durand]

Just had a case of Windows confusion that I hadn't seen before.

Setting up a new Windows 7 Pro system Windows decided that a generic
7-port USB hub was actually one of our lighting controllers.  Unplugging
the actual lighting controller didn't help, Windows still showed it as
plugged in with the definition of a generic hub. 

Several bad words later, I uninstalled the devices through Computer
Management and then plugged the hub back in, made SURE it was recognized
as a hub, then added each device.  Seems to work now but of course the
drive letter changed for an external drive... (grrrrr).

Why is it again so much stuff requires Windows?
