What method exists to handle this Windows popup dialog box through application program control:

****
USB Hub Current Limit Exceeded
An unknown device has exceeded he current limits of its hub port.
Recommendation
Disconnect the device and then click 'Reset' to re-enable the port. If you click 'Close', a reboot will be required to regain the port.
****

We will eject the bad part, but all other USB communication will be severed until someone drops by every now and then to correct this issue. Is there any way to trap this message and override Windows' default behaviour? We wish to catch this scenerio in our software instead of having windows go behind our backs. Thank you.
