DFMirage hook display driver for TightVNC greatly improves performance of the Win32 TightVNC Server, so it's a recommended update if you run the latest version of TightVNC. Once installed, the driver will be detected and used by the Win32 TightVNC Server automatically.

You have to use it with a latest version of TightVNC.

To install DFMirage driver silently please download the latest version from DFMirage's homepage.

An example silent installer will be: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<packages>

 <package id="miragedriver" name="Mirage Driver" revision="1" priority="50" reboot="false">
        <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Mirage Driver 1.1" />

        <install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\tightvnc\dfmirage-setup-1.1.68.2.exe" /verysilent /norestart' />
        <upgrade cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\tightvnc\dfmirage-setup-1.1.68.2.exe" /verysilent /norestart' />
        <remove cmd='"%PROGRAMFILES%\DemoForge\Mirage Driver\uninst\unins000.exe" /silent' />
 </package>

</packages>

The driver itself needs a reboot in order to be usable by Windows, but it's not worth restarting just to achieve that (unless you really need to).
