SELECTIVELY HIDING AN INTERFACE CONTROLLER FROM AN OPERATING SYSTEM

摘要

A method and other embodiments associated with an interface controller (310) are described. One example method (100) includes monitoring an interface device presence signal for an interface port connector (330) associated with an interface controller (310). The example method (100) also includes controlling (120) the interface controller (310) to be selectively hidden from an operating system (360) in response to the interface device presence signal being negative. The example method (100) further includes controlling (130) the interface controller (310) to be selectively disclosed to the operating system (360) in response to the interface device presence signal being positive.
