   Useful little thing to know if you want to show all the hidden hardware on a Windows machine:

   Basically at a cmd prompt:

   <br />set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1<br />start devmgmt.msc<br />

   Then in device manager “show hidden devices” under the view option.

   Edit for 2006: this is also useful for finding hidden devices.

1. I needed to get some Nforce 2 Audio codec drivers out from a Windows XP SP2 machine, and so this is a good first step.
