    - How to develop netmeeting like app I need to develop an application that takes control over tcp/ip on a client computer by specifing the client ip and port. This app will need to show the client desktop as he see it and have access to its machine. Any ideas? Ron Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35853

    - USB performance I have been measuring the performance of a USB 2.0 device we have developed and a driver based on the code provided in the Walter Oney book and discovered some strange things. 1. On dual processor machines, the throughput is 50% greater when one of the processors is removed. This is under Windows 2000 SP4. 2. On some machines, the throughput is more than twice as much under USB1 than under USB2. This is generally with USB1 ports integrated on the motherboard and with a PCI USB2 card. This has only been observed under Windows 2000, never under XP. I wonder if anyone else has observed similar behaviour, or has ideas as to how I could investigate further.

    - digital still camera sony dsc p1 I want to enum the stillimage-devices but the enumerator has the count 0. But I have a digitalcamera plugged in into the USB-Port and XP is showing a trayicon that can remove the device. A USB-Digitalcamera has to be a WIA-Device so why isn t it showing in the enumerator?

    - USB MIDI device driver development I'd completed the design of the hardware side of a USB MIDI music keyboard. However, I have no idea what will be the Windows XP device driver development. I read some books on the Windows WDM already but still have no idea. I understand that Windows XP/2K had USB-MINI class driver but don't know what else is needed? Can someone give me some pointer on what is needed? I had experienced in the VxD but not WDM Thanks Kan. Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35836

    - Do GCAPS_VECTORFONT and GCAPS_HIGHRESTEXT work, and if so how? Neither of these seem to function, at least on Win2K they don't. No matter if GCAPS_VECTORFONT is set the vector fonts always come through DrvStrokePath instead. And even if GCAPS_HIGHRESTEXT is set the coordinates for placement are just as LONGs, not at FIX resolution. Regards, Joe Hindmarsh Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35820

    - Device Driver Hard Drive emulation Hi I hope this is the right place to ask this. I have a client with a collection of operating systems, one of which is an AS400, and I would like to right a bit of software that would allow a windows machine (98/ME/2000/XP they have a whole collection) to think that it has a hard drive, but it is in fact a network type of share. Do I need the DDK to do this, and what would be the best approach, writing it so that it could use the "map drive" type interface, or do a hard drive emulator, must like Deamon does with CD-rom drives? Any help and pointers in the right directions would be greatly appreciated. Are there any Books on the subject etc. Thanks Vaughan Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35802

    - Reboot without bluescreen I am working with 1394 device driver over windows 1394 bus driver. I kept night long testing for Isoch send requests. There was debugger on a serial port. My target PC rebooted sometime in the night. There was no bluescreen. No error displayed on the debugger. If BSOD occurs, it should break into my debugger which caught only one print regarding reboot "Shutdown occured". There are few prints before which suggest very strange pattern of events occured. My "surprise remove" called. Later "Add Device". Again "Surprise remove". Then later shutdown and no blue screen. I am sure no one removed 1394 device cables. Is there any chance why "Surprise remove" occured on its own. If there is reboot without BSOD, how can I check. How can I make windows always give me BSOD for error. I even have "complete memory dump" set in recovery console. This is not dumped even. I also have driver verifier selected for my driver. Any clues ? Everything worked as though I removed cable, connected it, again removed and then restarted my PC..I dont think I came to lab in my dream :) Thanks. Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35791

    - device driver installation application in XP and Win9x I need to write an application to install my WDM device driver. The user will insert installation media before he plugs in the device. So when he plugs in the device for the first time, the device installation will be completely "silent". 1. For Windows XP, I followed the instructions in DDK. I use "SetupCopyOEMInf" function to copy my INF file to %windir%\inf foler, and a PNF file is generated too. However, when I plug in the device, the "New Device Found Dialog" still pops up. According to DDK, this should not happen if the PNF file is alreday generated. Is this because my driver is not digitally signed? 2. For Windows 98 SE, the "SetupCopyOEMInf" dosen't work. Is there a way to write a device driver installation program for Win9x/Me to install the driver before the device is plugged in? Thanks, Zhen Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35789

    - XP failing to enumerate HID devices I am having problems getting some versions of XP to enumerate HID devices (using the normal SetupDIxxxx functions). It is not just my code, or my hardware, as I can't even get the standard DDK Hidclient example to enumerate standard HID mice or keyboards on these machines. The machines I am having trouble with are running "XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 1". I have tried to replicate this on other machines with the same OS, but without success. The devices are working perfectly, and appear in the device manager correctly. I can even use Devcon to see them quite happily (using "Devcon listclass hidclass"). Anyone else experienced this or have any ideas? .... it is causing me a real headache as I've tried everything I can think of to get round it. Adrian Taylor Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)?

    - MS iSCSI software initiator Hi All I am developing a SCSI port filter driver. This driver works fine with other SCSI ports but there are some problems when used with MS iSCSI software initiator. When we send an SRB with SCSIOP_INQUIRY request to a SCSI device through the port device, the port returns STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL (which does not explain the problem). When we send the same request through the PDO that was created for that specific SCSI device, it never returns. It also does not return IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH / SCSIOP_INQUIRY requests. Does the iSCSI initiator support SCSIOP_INQUIRY requests? Why does it fail our requests? Thanks, Gregory Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35732

    - USB Port I/O Hi, I think microsoft does provides generic USB drivers. But I wonder how to access USB ports from my C program ? Is there any API's available for USB I/O ?? (...like one provided for Serial Communication) e.g. how do I enumerate number of USB Ports on my system programmatically ? Or do we have to make a custom device driver for the same ?

    - how to install a NT legacy driver to WIN2000 and WINXP? I have developed a driver for a serial smartcard reader in WIN NT4.now I want to develop one driver for the smartcardreader in WIN 2000 and WIN XP.I have heard that the NT legacy driver directly controls the hardware,however,in win 2000,Micrepsoft offers serial.sys and serenmum.sys for serial.how can I directly control the hardware? in a word ,what shall I do in order to install a NT legacy driver for a serial smartcardreader in WIN 2000?The reader does not support PC98 specification,which means that it can not be enumed by serenum.sys,does not support PNP.)

    - how to uninstall default driver and install my own? I have to develop PCI card driver for our custom wireless card. My role is to develop PCI device driver. As I do not have hardware currently, I'm thinking of testing my driver using existing network card - RTL8139(A) fast Ethernet. To do above, I uninstall driver provided by Microsoft. And When I restart the PC for installing my driver, default driver is installed again already. I went to registry also and made changes, but without any advantages. Could somebody pour some light on how to uninstall default driver and install my own? TIA, Sanjeev Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35700

    - viky@tridentinfosol.com hello i have a pci device,in which a particular bit in the control register is meant for interrupt enable. On interrupt enable i get interrupt. So i am supposed to clear the interrupt. i have few basic doubts what would happen when next interupt is generated & previous interrupt is still pending?? System hangs!! what this indicates. How is the interrupt handling taken place internally?? any suggestion is appreciated. viky Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35694

    - Orientation disoriented Hello, I'm writing a printer driver. It's very generic except for the small amount of custom stuff I needed to add. I think the problem is in the <generic> code. If I print a document that has three pages, for example, the first is portrait, the second is landscape, and the third is landscape the problem occurs. The first and second print correctly, but the third always prints out as portrait. Beyond that, if the document has more pages, they will all remain "portrait" even if I used page setup to make them portrait. If I print directly, the problem does not occur, it only happens when I choose to spool. Preview works fine as well. It seems that the default devmode is being copied back over to the current devmode just before the third page prints. In general, it will only print the first "landscape" page correctly and then forever print portrait. I think my drvDocumentPropertySheets function may be the problem, I don't show the property sheet dialog to the user, but must still handle the calls to the function from the O.S. Is it possible to have the DM_COPY and DM_MODIFY flags both set on the same call? If so, do I copy the pdmIn param to my internal devmode AND copy the internal devmode to pdmOut? If so, it seems logical to update the internal devmode first then copy it to pdmOut, rather than the other way around. True? I've looked at the DDK plot example, but it doesn't seem to apply. A sample drvDocumentPropertySheets function that does not actually show an interface would be most helpful. Wishful thinking department: I hope this is one of those "Oh yeah, I've seen that a hundred times, here's the fix." type bugs. Any takers...please. Thanks for saving me from eternal agony, Tom Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35680

    - accessing pcmcia function control registers, xp First, some background. I've got a custom pcmcia card based on an old memory card. The card contains the usual flash memory for the disk (which I do NOT use or even care about) and then some custom stuff that hangs off of I/O space. The tuples in the CIS are correct but do not contain the required resources. My driver is implemented as a filter driver on top of memcard.sys. I handle IRP_MN_FILTER_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS to add my I/O requirement and also add the DevicePrivate resource that dictates stuff like wait states and width. I then get the assigned I/O resources when START_DEVICE comes through my filter. Looking at a debug version of pcmcia.sys with the debug mask turned on full, everything looks ok as my card is installed. It sees my memory window, it sees my I/O range, it has the right values in the config resource section of the output, it correctly reads my tuples and knows that I have one function control register (FCR). It _seems_ happy. Now for the "but" everyone is expecting. Part of the project's functionality requires that I be able to change that first FCR (the Configuration Option Register) dynamically as dictated by the actions in a user program. Everything I've read says the function control registers are part of attribute memory and sit just after the 512k area reserved for the CIS tuples. My approach is to issue an IRP_MN_READ_CONFIG to device I'm filtering to read all of attribute memory (length of 513 - 512 for CIS and 1 for FCR), change my single register and issue an IRP_MN_WRITE_CONFIG to change attribute memory. Doesn't work - if I issue a second READ_CONFIG after I've done the WRITE (which returns STATUS_SUCCESS), the data starting after the CIS area is back to its old value. In fact, I issued a READ_CONFIG with a big buffer and it contains the 512 CIS area repeated over and over for as big as the buffer. My WRITE has no affect. If I can't set this register on the fly, this whole effort is useless. My question - how do I write to that first FCR?

    - A fake USB bus driver What I am trying to implement is a fake USB bus driver. I took as a boilerplate Eliyas Yakub's bus driver and modified it to serve IOCTL_INTERNAL_USB_ requests. Then as a root enumerated bus driver I try to expose a fake USB mouse PDO. The Device Manager successfully enumerates it and shows entries under "Usb Human Interface Device" and "Mice and other pointing devices". So it seems stacks are build successfully. After enumeration the PDO of the HID stack gets Create and Read requests, but the PDO in the fake USB stack does not get a corresponding IRP_MJ_INTERNAL_DEVICE_CONTROL request as it occurred in the case with a regular USB mouse and normal USB stack. And, yes, I register/activate GUID_DEVINTERFACE_USB_DEVICE on my PDO and create SymbolicName parameter under Device Parameters (I wonder what for) What do I miss here?

    - How to stop Passthru miniport driver service Hi, I am having problem uninstalling the NDIS Passthru (MSDN Sample) driver sometime on XP. From the setupapi.log, I found out that whenever the reinstallation of the driver fails, the previous instance of the NDIS Passthru miniport driver service is marked for deletion only. So I can reinstall w/ the driver same service before the old one being removed. Is there anyway to get around that problem w/o rebooting the machine after uninstall? I have tried "net stop <driver name>", but the return stats says the target service doesn't support pause or stop. So is there other way I can stop the driver service before I uninstall the driver?

    - Installing IM driver with restart At the moment I'm installing my IM driver on XP and 2000 like this: SetupCopyOEMInfW INetCfgClassSetup::Install INetCfg::.Apply in short just the way snetcfg example from DDK does. Since I don't get good installation without rebooting the system I was wondering I could install in such way that the IM driver is NOT inserted in the protocol stack under the installation but rather when the computer is restarted ? One issue is that all network connections are broken under the install, and I think it might help on stability if installation was not done "online" -- best regards Zuka Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)?

    - Creation of file using ZwCreateFile. I want to create a file using the ZwCreateFile function and I am working in kernel mode. In his book on Windows Driver Model Walter Oney says : "Depending on where your device falls in the initialization sequence, you might or might not have access to files using normal pathnames like \?? \C:\dir\file.ext. To be safe, put your data files into some directory below the system root directory and use a filename like \SystemRoot\dir\file.ext." Now initially I was doing the first and I was being returned the error :Object Path not valid. So now I decided to do the latter. To get SystemRoot I am using the Windows API GetWindowsDirectory. However I get an error while building and I suspect its bcoz GetWindowsDirectory works only in User mode. Can someone tell me the kernel mode API to get the SystemRoot? Or do u thinnk something else is wrong. Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35627

    - 802.1X Infrastrucutre Question Hello, I am developing a smart card device on USB to provide passwords for the wireless link. The idea is to plug into the EAP infrastructure in Windows XP & Longhorn. I already have the hardware working with WDM compliant driver. What I am looking for is information on how to plugin my security device in XP so it shows up in the 802.1X Tab and what API do I have to adhere to. Tag: Talk to RAIDs (Promise/Adaptec)? Tag: 35611

Eliyas:

How do you talk to a RAID miniport? Specifically to get
the status of the drives masked by the driver.

Samples/specs/IOCTL's/structures unique to RAIDS greatly
appreciated.

Jorg

I'm not certain of this, but I strongly suspect that there is no
standard for 'talking to the raid controller', that instead both the
mechanism and the protocol is vendor specific.
