    - GDI_DRIVER Driver compilation with VS7.1 IDE Hi, Introduction: ********** I am writing a display mirror driver, I am trying to use the VS7.1 (.NET) IDE to compile the driver, conversion to an .vsproj solution is done by the 'Source to DSP converter' app provided with 'SoftIce driver suit'. The Problem: ********** The mirror is build of to files: the miniport driver and the display driver, no problems has occurred converting compiling and using the miniport driver, in contrast, conversion of the display driver failed: the 'Source to DSP converter' doesn't support GDI_DRIVER conversions, SO..., I tried to do some tricks: I have changed the TARGETTYPE of the GDI_DRIVER to DRIVER and then used the 'Source to DSP converter' with the new source file, the result was a new .vsproj compiling a .sys driver I have changed the name of the driver to be .dll and removed the 'DriverEntry' DLL entry point from the project configuration, still, using the new driver causes an 'Unhandled kernel mode exception', using the display driver compiled by the 'source' makefile works fine and doesn't reproduce this problem, what may cause the problem? what went wrong during the 'Source to DSP converter' conversion? what special configurations are required for a GDI driver? Should there be any specific entry point to a GDI_DRIVER? Thanks in advance, Nadav, Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38463

    - PNP Manager I have developed a failover driver for a fibre channel medium changer device on Windows 2000 that is tightly dependent on the PNP Manager. When I pull the cable out of my hardware, one of my Win/2K systems immediately rescans the bus without any intervention on my part, notifies Device Manager of a hardware change, and sends IRP_MN_SURPISE_REMOVAL to my driver. I have another Windows system on which the rescan does not automatically take place. On that system I have to use device manager to manually "Scan for hardware changes" before the surprise removal notification will happen. In order for this driver to work, the scan needs to happen automatically. How do I get this to happen? Does it depend on Windows or on the fibre channel adapter card and its driver?

    - usb with ohci?..any simple tutorials?..code? Howdy all, well I was wondering if anyone had come across some really simple...but good tutorials on the ohci specification with code...and how to use it with a usb device...very low level stuff...for example mapping to the registers in memory ...testing for bits...and with simple code examples that would explain why......not working through the os though...a kernel driver possible...like that is done in linux :) Thanx for any help :) Ben Tag: Driver install without windows ?

    - CMOS sensor - USB Trust 120 Spacec@m Webcam Hello. Can someone tell me the name/model of the CMOS sensor in the above webcam? Or an hint on how to retrieve it? I don't have datasheets. Trust and Google don't help. The name is not written on the hardware. I analyzed the drivers for windows (40 MB of zipped shit for just a driver..hu..): nothing The only information is the it has 28 pins: **nothing** more. Any idea would be much appreciated.

    - HCT 11.2 - TestImports Problem Can someone help me understand what this error means: ERROR: 71: Public Imports Test failed to run, TestImports function call failed. This is from a run of HCT with an NDIS IM driver. What's odd is the NDISTEST 1c_KernelCalls passes (I assume that TestImports checks for invalid kernel calls from an NDIS driver). Also, the driver is not binary compatible (it's only used for XP). Would that cause this problem. Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38439

    - Service Name Issues With CheckInf I get the following error with checkinf from Windows 2003 DDK: Line 77: ERROR: (E22.1.1014) Service Net6IM already using binary $WinDir$\system32\drivers\net6im50.sys. This is odd since I am using the same service for both W2K and XP installations. However, I've added a target OS version in the Manufacturer section and am using separate NDI's for the OSs that the inf is used on. Is this a WHQL requirement that different services must be used on different OSs or is this a problem with the chkinf tool? Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38437

    - Audio synchronization I need to synchronize audio with another output device. Can I do this with an interrupt driven heartbeat generated by the output device. The synchronization only needs to be visually accurate, in other words I'm not concerned about microseconds, but I would like to be accurate to 100 milliseconds. My initial thought is to have my interrupt routine begin a 100ms segment of audio. The next interrupt would stop the previous segment (if the audio is behind) and then play the next segment. My "interrupt routine" would probably be a thread at the application level waiting for my device to interrupt. I don't think I would need to place this in my device's DPC. I've been reading up on the Wavform Audio Interface, is this the correct area? There must be some support for this built into the interface to facilitate the usage of a scroll bar to scan through an audio file. My questions are, am I looking in the right place and a corrollary, how flexible is the interface? I don't want to waste research time going down a false path.

    - Picture transfer protocol Folks, I would like to acquire images and change camera settings under program control, using a Nikon Coolpix camera connected via USB, and the Nikon SDK (which I have). I gather this requires PTP and WIA, but am so far entirely ignorant of these technologies. I'd really appreciate it if someone would give me a pointer to documentation that could get me started.

    - Device Object NULL in completion routine Hi, In my FSD filter, I am building up my own IRP to send to the lower driver so that I can get some info (QueryDirectory) about a directory. The problem is that when my completion routine is called, it contains proper data, but the device object I get is NULL (is this normal?). Also my stack location seems to be wrong since it no longer contains the parameters (minor/major functions say), that I setup. Any clues?

    - Maximum StrMini Driver Size?? I am developing a stream class mini driver based on usbcamd. Today I ran into an extremely odd BSOD that I initially thought was related to some memory management code that I had added. It turns out that the problem is that I added code. I have reached the state where the following will take the driver from functional to non-functional. int i for(i=0;i<1;++i){} I can add this, or equally useless code in a variety of different functions (none of which are called) and cause this error. The BSOD message is about a page fault in the non-paged area caused by ks.sys. It occurs when I attempt to render the capture pin on the filter. The driver can be loaded and unloaded as many times as one likes without error. I am wondering if this can be related to SRB_PAGING_OUT_DRIVER? I noticed that the INF file (intelcam) I copied does set PageOutWhenUnopened registry setting. Is it possible that enabling this can cause this error or is there some other possibility? This is running on XP Pro SP1. Regards, Tom Udale Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38374

    - Device Extension for NDIS miniport driver I am writing a NDIS miniport driver. From DDK documentation, I was told to use NdisRegisterDevice instead of IoCreateDevice to create a device object.

    - SetupCopyOEMInf - avoiding prompts during install I have a new driver install and an old driver install that use different source media locations. I have been using SPOST_PATH for the OEMSourceMediaType when I call SetupCopyOEMInf. This is leading to setup problems because the old INF is selected by SetupAPI during install. This INF points to an installation directory that does not exist and the user is prompted for the correct location of required files. I think the root of this problem is that the PNF has to old source media information. Should I call SetupCopyOEMInf with SP_COPY_REPLACEONLY copy style to update the old PNF if it exists and then call it again with the SP_COPY_NOOVERWRITE copy style to copy it sure the PNF has the current source path info (if needed)?

    - Hardware ID in win 2000 and UpdateDriverForPNP My .inf has an entry for that says _01 %xyz.DeviceDesc%=xyz.Device,USB\VID_xxx&PID_yyy I am trying to install the driver for the device for the case where the device is plugged in but the Add New hardware wizard was cancelled by the user. Now, if I pass the HWID "USB\\VID_xxx&PID_yyy", updateDriverfor.. fails with 20B (no_such_device) I think. Then if I change it to "USB\\VID_xxx&PID_yyy&Rev_0001" (which I know from the registry whenever I install this successfully in the nice ol' plug device after software installation way) AND also change it in .INF, my updatedriver.. succeeds and device is shown working properly with the correct name in device manager. So my question is, what is that Rev.. thing? is it like a hardware revision? if so, I would not know every possible revision number in advance and would like to keep it generic for the device? How do I achieve that? What is the correct entry in .INF and correct HardwareID to be passed to the function updatedriver.. Thanks for your time. Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38363

    - Help on Win2k and USBD_STATUS_DEV_NOT_RESPONDING Hello Everyone, I have written a NDIS-WDM (USB) driver. I ran the NDISTest on Windows XP. There was no problem. Then I used (ported) the same driver on Win2K (by setting NDIS50 instead of NDIS51). Surprisingly, I am getting a strange problem. When I run heavy traffic tests (like 2c_PerformanceProfile and 2c_SendRecv1), I get a strange error in the middle of the transfer. I get STATUS_DEVICE_DATA_ERROR in the IRP Status and USBD_STATUS_DEV_NOT_RESPONDING in the URB Status. But the device is connected and running. I tried doing RESET_PORT at the error condition. But it does not help. Also, when I remove the cable also, I don't get STATUS_DEVICE_NOT_CONNECTED in Win2k (like I get on WinXP). Instead I get STATUS_DEVICE_DATA_ERROR (and USBD_STATUS_DEV_NOT_RESPONDING). How can I handle the conditions? Even though the device is connected and working, I get USBD_STATUS_DEV_NOT_RESPONDING and when the device is not connected also I get the same error. There is no difference in the errors. Since mine is a NDIS-WDM driver, I don't get SURPRISE REMOVAL event on Win2K (as I get on XP). So, I cannot detect the surprise removal also. I have to wait for the MiniPortHalt to be called which does not happen until I stop the USBD IN/Read transactions. If I ignore the first error of USBD_STATUS_DEV_NOT_RESPONDING, I get ENDPOINT_HALTED error in the subsequent IN/read transactions. I know at least one of you might have faced the same/similar problem. Can anyone please help me in having a work-around for this problem. If I am doing something wrong in my driver, please let me know so that I can correct the same. Thanks in advance for the great help. Best Regards, GNRaj Tag: Driver install without windows ?

    - Device object creating in 2003 Hello, I am making some device driver for DVD media. But I have trouble for DVD multi-drive that can support DVD-R/RW, DVD- RAM media at same time. So I need change it's device type depending on media. Also, I want to create DosDevice which will be a mount point of media. ( This works good in Windows 2000 ) What I am trying to do: 1. Change device type from FILE_DEVICE_DISK to FILE_DEVICE_CD_ROM or reverse. 2. Create virtual driver letter( ex, z:\ ) which is symbolic linked to '\Device\xxxx'. * basically both 1 & 2 are working good in windows 2000, but not in windows 2003. Where I am at: 1. When the system boots up, I create Device node with FILE_DEVICE_DISK. When a DVD-ROM media inserted, delete that node and create new device node with FILE_DEVICE_CD_ROM as same device name. ( In case of DVD- RAM media, use it as it is. ) The deletion and new creation device node returns success. But when I try to get File system using NtQueryVolumeFile, the process is hang. I quess the device type is not changed. 2. When I got some ioctl, I create 2 device nodes. One is \Device\xxxx with FILE_DEVICE_DISK and the other is \DosDevice\z:. And I did symbolic link both. Here, I got success return value for all step. But I cannot look up \DosDevice\z: even if I can see \Device\xxxx.( with WinObj.exe ) The data I/O to z: works good. But I can't see z: drive in window explorer. * But when I make a windows service application which do as same step of #2, the service application can create \DosDevice\z: and z: is visiabl in window explorer. Both 1&2 device driver is made of LEGACY type not PNP. Let me know if you need any more details. Thanks. Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38346

    - Two similar devices in Device Manager after preinstall Hello, What I am trying to do: Preinstall a driver so that a device that is already connected (but not gone through/cancelled the found new hardware wizard screen) works without disconnect and reconnect. (since I cannot make animations showing "plug it in now" :) ) Where I am at: I know the hardware id of the device and I am using a code very similar to install.c in the DDK sample for installing the driver using UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevicesSoThatTheUserDoesNotHaveToGoThroughTheFoundNewhardwareScreen function. It seems to be working, well, only partially. I am on w2k, and have to use the SetupDiGetINFClass/ SetupDiCreateDeviceInfoList/ SetupDiCreateDeviceInfo sequence. In the end, the call to Updatedriver.. succeeds but I can now see *two* USB devices with same name in the device manager (the name is correct), one is shown working correctly and the other has a yellow companion. Enum\USB has information about 1 device and it is what it should be. ( My removal code thinks there are two devices also I do GetClassDev, EnumDevices and then callClassInstaller with REMOVE, it thinks it has removed two devices.) What am I doing wrong? Let me know if you need any more details. I am new to this and do not know exactly what things are most relevant. cheerio! Tag: Driver install without windows ? Tag: 38329

No, you have to do it as part of a windows install. I assume you CD-ROM
will boot via the BIOS. You will need a floppy with the needed driver, the
inf file, and a txtsetup.oem file, you should be able to load these from the
HP site. Boot the Windows installation CD, and press F6 when prompted near
the beginning of the blue screen. The system will load for a while, then
prompt you for the floppy with files.

I'm absolutely sure that Presario's BIOS allows you to boot off CD drive.

Then take the Windows installation CD (they are all bootable since IIRC
some service pack for NT4), insert it to Presario, go to its BIOS and enable
booting from the CD.

The rest will be done automatically, and you will see Windows Setup, which
(Windows) will be then installed.
