Does anybody know how to reload a WDDM display driver on Vista without having
to reboot? On XP with XPDM I used the ChangeDisplaySettings API to switch to
VGA mode and then back to accelerated mode. The same approach doesn’t seem to
work for my WDDM driver.

I basically just want to be able to copy in an updated version of the driver
and have Windows use it.
Thanks!

Well, both I guess. I've replaced the existing driver with my own driver but
I'd like to be able to have it reloaded whenever I copy in a new version of
it.
