Came across the following:

Laptop with Intel 915 graphics chip.

Run the setup with the flags they claimed would make it silent.
Registry check fails.

Reboot the machine.
"Found new hardware!"

Registry check succeeds.

As far as I've decoded the installer doesn't really install anything, but it puts some new *inf files into WINNT somewhere, and tells the device manager to scan for new graphics hardware.

Is there a graceful way to deal with this?

At present what I would have to do use use one of the sysinternals regmon tools, and filter out the crap to see what was happening under the hood.

I guess it looks like this:

1) installer copies new drivers (*.inf etc.)
2) registry check fails, WPKG reboots
3) installer continues after reboot, makes registry entries
4) WPKG check successful

So I guess it's OK?
