USB Driver Needed?

I am quite ignorant about device drivers and am just now looking thru
the Windows DDK. My question is simple, if I am developing a piece of
hardware that I want to talk to via USB, can I use the USB driver
supplied with Windows XP, which works just fine for my other USB
stuff, or do I have to write a device driver for my hardware?

I'd recommend you acquire Walter Oney's book "Programming the Windows Driver
Model, Second Edition", and pay attention to his USB information.
