On Windows 7 systems, whenever you plug in a new USB peripheral (mouse, keyboard etc.) the message always pops up that a new device has been detected, followed by one stating that drivers are being installed, followed by another stating that the drivers have been installed. At some point if you start using a new USB mouse or a new USB keyboard, you get those messages all over again.
When you start using a new peripheral like a new mouse or keyboard, are the drivers that were installed for the old peripherals ever removed? Or do they just pile up in the system?
