enable/disable hardware in device manager from .NET

[djbyrne]

...Possible to do?
I have a faulty XFi whereby if i turn on the computer and the Xfi is enabled, more often than not it will freeze on load and require a reboot to safe mode.
I planned on making a utility that will disable the card on shutdown, and automatically re-enable on startup, doing away with the manual "fix"

Does anybody know if this is possible even if it involves non-managed code?

-willing to learn!
Cheers!

I would look into using WMI: http://www.google.com/search?q=wmi+disable+device
