auto uninstall

Hi
My install also install some USB drivers. When my program is uninstalled the USB drivers are not removed. The only way to remove them is using add / remove programs. Is there a way to automaticaly uninstall the drivers when uninstalling my program?

How did you install them in the first case? If it was an install custom action then you'd need an uninstall custom action. If you used the bootstrap mechanism it has no built-in uninstall of prerequisites.
