#Hid compliant device disable install

This is a basically one day old install of Windows 8, and I haven't connected any other joysticks, wheels, or the nostromo yet, all of which will make the list even more rediculously long. At points in time a T650 touchpad, and Xbox controller, were connected (not on this boot). This is a G15 KB, Razer Mouse, and nothing else plugged in.

Here's an example of what I'm referring to (in the manual and awful to do way). What I'm looking for is software that would allow me to select the devices I will be using, from a list, and have them enabled automatically, while disabling all that are unchecked. Now, it wouldn't be big deal to disable some of them manually, except devices seem to have blown up massively in the number of HID spots they are listed as. This means I need to manually disable each unncessary one in Device Manager, or I need to unplug everything extraneous, and then reboot. I have multiple games that will flat out not even start, if I even have a few devices connected. With the number of USB ports available, on the rise, it's much easier to just leave everything connected.

It's not surprising, I suppose, considering how many exist, and serve distinct niche uses. I seem to be finding that some applications and games have serious problems, when trying to deal with too many HID peripherals connected simultaneously.
