This works as long as you are careful with the *.inf files. Some drivers 
use the same inf file ("setup.inf" I think), and obviously you can't 
have drivers overwriting other drivers' files.

I use three to six character directory names like:

$oem$\$1\drv\e100
$oem$\$1\drv\3c901c
$oem$\$1\drv\gforce
Etc.

But I'm only installing to WinXP, so I don't need several versions of the same driver.
