Installing a driver with Devcon

I have to install to install on Toshiba Satellite Pro 6100 the Toshiba SD Card Controller Type A

I am not sure how to do that so I will explain all tests I made.

So I tried:

1. In a batch file:
%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 C:\Drivers\Autres\TSDHost\TSDHD.INF

With no success.

2. So I am trying devcon to install the driver

In the TSDHD.INF, I found: PCI\VEN_1179&DEV_0805&SUBSYS_00011179

So I made a search by running:
devcon find PCI\VEN_1179&DEV_0805&SUBSYS_00011179 and got
PCI\VEN_1179&DEV_0805&SUBSYS_00011179&REV_03\4&139E449D&0&68F0

3. I create a batch file:

devcon.exe install C:\Drivers\Autres\TSDHost\tsdhd.inf "PCI\VEN_1179&DEV_0805&SUBSYS_00011179&REV_03\4&139E449D&0&68F0" and ran it...

I got a devcon files. And in the hardware listing I have an unknown peripheral appearing... just higher the one I want to install.

4. I tried a vbs (I know almost nothing in vbs)
objshell.run "devcon.exe install C:\Drivers\Autres\TSDHost\tsdhd.inf""PCI\VEN_1179&DEV_0805&SUBSYS_00011179&REV_03\4&139E449D&0&68F0"

And the program does not run. I got a failure from the script.

Will someone help me to find where I am wrong.

If the driver is signed try using the DIFx framework on the Microsoft site. You can then use DPInst.exe which is not too bad to figure out or if you like MSIs and more adventure try the DIFxApp.
