HwComponent Section of a TxtSetup.oem File
A HwComponent section lists the drivers available for a particular component. There is a HwComponent section for each type of component supported by the file.
[HwComponent]
ID = description
...
HwComponent
The name of the section must be one of the following system-defined values: computer or scsi.
ID
Specifies a string, unique within this section, that identifies the option.
For each entry in this section, there must be a corresponding Files.HwComponent.ID section in the file.
For the computer component, the last three characters of the string determine which kernel Windows copies. If this string ends in "_up", Windows copies the uniprocessor kernel. If this string ends in "_mp", Windows copies the multiprocessor kernel. If the string does not end in "_Xp", Windows copies one or the other kernel, but does not guarantee which one.
description
Specifies a string that Windows presents to the user in the menu of driver choices.
