When I build kbfiltr for Win2000 and install the filter using the sample INF
file, I can use kbftest to access the driver. If I reinstall the driver on
top of itself on Win2000, the device stops working and kbftest can no longer
access the driver.

Note that reinstalling on top of itself is is not a problem on WinXP or Vista.

How can I reinstall kbfiltr.sys on top of itself under Win2000? I need a
programatic way to do this.

The 2nd install seems to go fine. You do reboot. Device manager looks ok with
no yellow bangs. The driver is loaded but when you use the test program, you
can't get a handle to the driver.

If you do 3rd install on top of the others, the test program still can't get
a handle.
