Additional information...
It seems to hang when tried from XP Pro, but seems to work when done from
Win2K. I left the XP attempt running (hanged) and went to lunch and came
back. It appeared to have finally done something when I returned to check
on it over an hour later.
I sure would like to know what is causing it to hang on XP, but for now, I
guess my workaround is to use Win2K to upload the drivers.
