Default wireless network adapter drivers

Don't do this enough to be good at it; but all the quick install guides
say to put in their software, then plug the adapter in. Windows Zero
Config utility works just fine for me, and is consistent no matter who's
adapter you use.

So against all advice from the manufacturer, can one just insert the
device (WinXP) let the hardware wizard find just the driver on the cd or
from the download if you bought it white box, and let WZC keep doing
it's thing without having to be asked "do you want to use WZC instead of
ours" and end up with 20-100mb of useless crap in your box.

Thanks
