Output Binary...

Hi ,

I wanted to know what is the binary for Monitor Driver..
When I installed Monitor driver for my Samsung SyncMaster
753s all I could notice was .pnf .inf and .icm file.. Does
Monitor Driver do not mean a .sys or .dll file ? Can you
tell me ? Actually I wanted to write functional driver for
my monitor.. I understand that writing funtional driver
for monitor is in other words writing a monitor driver..
So is it that monitor driver is just an .icm file ? If it
is so then if I want to write lower level class driver for
monitor class how do I do it ? My options are to write
either functional driver for monitor or lower level filter
driver for monitor..
Any help will be appreciated...
Thanks in advance...

Hi Maxim,
Thanks !
So the question now is if I have .icm file and then if I install profile I
would be able to write Lower Level Filter for Monitor class ?

Thanks again,
Neel

And what will it do?

Yes. Usually, the only piece of deployed Windows which is connected to a
particular monitor is the .ICM file. No executables.

A respectful person from MS said that LowerFilters will work for monitor
devnode, but be careful to pass all non-yours requests correctly, since
LongHorn will have a functional driver for monitors.
