*About the “Skip obtaining driver software from Windows Update” option
If your operating system is configured to obtain driver software from Windows Update, it may take time for installation to
complete because the process searches for drivers from Windows Update first. You can reduce the time until the
completion of installation by choosing to skip obtaining driver software from Windows Update. (Depending on your
operating system, it may take some time until installation is complete.)
From the Driver Software Installation dialog box, click "Skip obtaining driver software from Windows Update".
