    - Writing Miniport installtion application?? Hi All , I want to write a setup application to install the base driver for my network card. I tried the devcon sample , it succeeded to detect the device , created registry entries but the device manager shows the icon saying device cannot start. And also the NDC doesnot show the connection. If i install the driver using device manager everything works fine.. What might be the problem. I have set the Driver signing option to Ignore as my INF does not contain digital signature information. Any help will be appreciated.. -Santosh //Miniport installtion Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 41086

    - Question about USBD Hi, I'm developing a USB client driver and I found that USBD will keep several USB ACK together until a bus driver thread was signaled, and corresponding IRP completion routines will be invoked together. I'm thinking of if there's any way I can get the information from the bus driver about how many IRPs completion routine will be returned in this session, which can let me to process whole these IRPs completion routine in the last one. Thanks in advance, juji Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 41085

    - FS Filter Driver READ request Hi All, I am writing an upper filter driver. I run hello.exe which displays "Hello World" using only printf statement. In the read completion request of the filter driver I capture all READ requests for hello.exe. But filter driver never gets READ request for the offset range containing "Hello World" string within the hello.exe. And all the data which is read never contains this string. Still I can see output as "Hello World". I can see rest of the hello.exe being read. Is there any specific reason why it happens so? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, rushikesh.

    - intermediate driver or others!!! Hi All, If I want to develop a layer to provide me with the NIC card/network (mainly connection less) information and have control over starting and stoping those NIC cards then do I have to develop a "NDIS Intermediate driver" or is there other solution(s)??? if the first one is correct, then I was reading in a web site that there are two ways of developing such, one is through Hooking and another through combined protocol/miniport driver, though it was saying that Hooking is best but not supported and not document by MS at all.... is this true??? where can I read indepth info on how to develop intermediate drivers???? thank you in advance.

    - how does IoGetDeviceObjectPointer() work in win98? Hi, All, I develop a WDM Driver that in the AddDevice()£¬I use IoRegisterPlugPlayNotification() to register listen to an USB device's insert/remove.In its callback function, I use following code to get the DeviceObject£º if(IsEqualGUID(dicn->Event, GUID_DEVICE_INTERFACE_ARRIVAL)) { status = IoGetDeviceObjectPointer( dicn->SymbolicLinkName, FILE_ALL_ACCESS, &pFile, &pdo); ................. } I found that in win 2000£¬the pdo return back is tha same as the DeviceObject of the lower driver. So after that, the IRP build by me can be successfully send to the lower device¡£At this time, the dicn->SymbolicLinkName looks like \??\USB#Vid_6513Pid_0089#51e37dc9701#{guid} But in win98, the same codeget different result. IoGetDeviceObjectPointer £¨£©return NTSUCCESS£¬but the pdo return back is different from the DeviceObject of the lower driver. The IRP build by me£¬can't be send to lower driver by IoCallDriver()¡£what's the problem? this time £¬the dicn->SymbolicLinkName looks like \DosDevice\0000000000000002\{guid} Further more, I found that, in win 2000, when I call IoGetDeviceObjectPointer(), the lower driver will recieve an IRP_MJ_CREATE. But in win 98, the lower one can't recieve that IRP. why? It seems so strange. in win98, the IoGetDeviceObjectPointer() can return success, and give a pdo to me, but I can't use it. Could anybody be kind enough to show me some light in that? Thanks in advance! Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 41054

    - USBD DISPATCH_LEVEL Requests Is there any formal (or at least accurate) documentation on which USBD requests require/allow which IRQL? For instance, I know I can invoke URB_FUNCTION_BULK_OR_INTERRUPT_TRANSFER at DISPATCH_LEVEL and I know that URB_FUNCTION_SELECT_CONFIGURATION when called at DISPATCH_LEVEL (executes paged code at line 1025 of usbd\config.c). It sure would be handy to have a document on this rather than needing to step through all this by trial-and-error. Thanks. -- Daniel Norton Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 41045

    - driver installation problem Hi, If I use the New Hardware Wizard and specify the wizard to "skip driver installations of this device. Windows will prompt again to perform the driver installation". Then when I run my own driver installation program, the call to get the SPDRP_CONFIGFLAGS using SetupDiGetDeviceRegistryProperty fails ... checking the registry the key doesn't seem to exist My questions are 1) How can I tell if such a device is marked for installation/re-installation 2) How can I find out which devices will be automatically handled by the hardware wizard the next time they are plugged i Thank Dan Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 41041

    - PCI card driver: enumeration and interfaces Hallo, thank you for your help with my previous problems :) I'm developing a driver for a custom PCI card which exposes some resources. We want to hide the number of the cards from user mode, so i wrote another driver which enumerates the real devices and routes the requests to the appropriate device, appearing as one single big card. I've got some problems here: when I try to enumerate the devices, I only get the first device object, and I'm not able to obtain the other(s). I've got two cards installed at the moment, and with Device Three i can see both of them, but when i call IoGetDeviceInterfaces() I only get one entry, and the device object obtained from that entry with IoGetDeviceObjectPointer() has the NextDevice field set to null. How can i get the full list of the devices given the class id or the hwid ? Another thing: the two device types communicate through an interface. The upper device opens the lower device and sends a IRP_MN_QUERY_INTERFACE. in the lower device the request is handled properly, and the Status field is set to STATUS success, but back in the upper device i obtain an error in Status. Before calling IoCallDriver i set the Status field to STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED and that (or whatever else i put in it) is the value that I get back. Thank you again for your help, jross Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 41035

    - AVStream avshws DDK example I'm playing around with avshws to learn AVStream. avshws shows up in the "WDM Streaming Capture Devices" category in GraphEdit. I'd like the driver to appear in "Video Capture Sources" as well. I have some ideas as to how this might be done, but I'd like to get a deeper understanding. Any info is appreciated.

    - NEC dvd driver problem Hope I'm in the right newsgroup! I have just bought a NEC 2500 dvd rw, but have major problems installing it. WindowsXP is recognising the drive but is unable to load the drivers. The balloon message says Found New Hardware _NEC dvd rw 2500a Found New Hardware CD Rom Found New Hardware _NEC dvd rw 2500a Found New Hardware CD Rom and so on and so on. The drive is not fully recognised or usable, and is automatically disabled in the device manager. I can sometimes get XP to recognise the dvd drive by uninstalling and re-installing the dvd drivers and forcing enable and it will work fine for a while. When I re-start XP the balloon message will again pop up and it starts all over again. Found New Hardware _NEC dvd rw 2500a Found New Hardware CD Rom Found New Hardware _NEC dvd rw 2500a Found New Hardware CD Rom and on and on until I remove the drivers in Device manager. This appears to be a recognised problem and is mentioned on the NEC website but the following solution proposed by them does not work. You need to choose to your "DRIVERS" folder. Then change or delete the folder "MONITOR" Switch to "C:WINDOWS" Ensure that you have in windows explorer settings option activated to see ALL data (also hided and system files) Switch to "c:WINDOWSINF" Look for the "INFCACHE.1" file and delete it Switch to your desktop trash can and empty it If problem cant be solved, pls. contact manufacturer of your PC package.

    - Difference between Local Disk aund Removable Disk Hi, I have read Mark Roddy's article on http://www.wd-3.com/121503/luserland.htm. He described as you can get the sector address (LBA) a file on a harddisk. His sample code works for NTFS & FAT32 partions. With a small look in the FAT spec and some adaptations the sample also works for FAT12/16. The sample works on W2K & WXP for harddisks and all disks declared as "Local Disk". For "Removable Disk" like a USB Mass Storage Device this sample (API call DeviceIoControl/IOCTL_VOLUME_LOGICAL_TO_PHYSICAL) does not work and system error 50 (not supported) does occur. The same device declared as "Local Disk" everythink does work. Is there are a workaround to get DeviceIoControl/IOCTL_VOLUME_LOGICAL_TO_PHYSICAL data also on "Removable Disks" or is there are another possibility to get the wanted information on another way? All hints are very welcome. TIA Alex Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40948

    - unresolved external using standard C lib I feel like an idiot, but this is my first time trying to compile things in the DDK environment. I'm trying to use the C standard runtime function "fopen" in a driver. I've included stdio.h and the code compiles fine, but when it links, I get "unresolved external symbol __imp__fopen referenced in function..." I figured the standard C library stuff would be setup to link by default. What am I missing, and where does it go? Thanks, pw Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40922

    - [802.11] Windows NDIS questions Hello, I am beginner at this subject. Sorry I if ask some bullshits. I need develop an application that detect the available access points and establish a connection. The target O.S. are Windows 2000 and Windows XP. My questions are: 1. What are the diferences among NDIS, NDISUIO and NDISPROT? 2. Must I develop a Protocol driver(like NDISPROT or NDISUIO) or it's better call directly the NDIS library functions(like NdisRequest)? 3. How can I disable Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC) service inside my application? Thanks, Claudio. Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40920

    - Questions on PCI config space when ressetting a PCI board Hi, I'm developing a wdm driver under Win2K for a proprietary PCI board. Unfortunately, the board's PCI interface logic is part of a FPGA that can only be fully reset by reconfiguring the FPGA. We foresee that we need to reset our board on certain occasions and we do not want to power-cycle our system for this. Therfor, I'm implementing the following reset sequence in my driver: Because the reconfiguration of the FPGA resets the PCI config space, I start with saving this data (after having disabled the boards PCI interface). I then call PoRequestPowerIrp to force the board to go to device state D3. In the IoCompletion routine, PoRequestPowerIrp is called again to force the board to go back to device state D0 (this actually resets our FPGA and the PCI config space). In the IoCompletion routine of the second PoRequestPowerIrp, I restore the PCI config space data and reenable the PCI interface. When, in the above scheme, I use the sequence IoBuildAsynchronousFsdRequest() - IoSetCompletionRoutine() - IoCallDriver() to read or write the PCI configuration space, this completion routine is called with DeviceObject = NULL. I solve this by passing the DeviceObject via the 'context' of the completion routine. Is this normal or could I be doing something wrong here? Apart from the above problem the sequence seems to work, but I am not sure wether I should also save and restore the power management registers of the PCI config space. Or should I leave this to the pci.sys bus driver who does the actual D0/D3/D0 switching ? Also, I'm not sure that the above will work under all circumstances so I would appreciate it if anybody knows where to find some more info on stuff like this. Thanks in advance, Koen Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40909

    - Basic kernel mode driver question. I have the following development workstation: Windows XP Pro, VC++6.0, DDK 2600.1106 (installed in C:\DDK\WINDDK\2600.1106), Platform SDK February 2003. As a confirmation that all of the above components are installed correctly, I compiled one of the sample projects (oemps) by doing the following: 1.. Opened an XP checked build window via the start menu. 2.. Navigated to "C:\DDK\WINDDK\2600.1106\src\print\oemdll\oemps". 3.. Typed "build -cef" 4.. The kernel mode driver KOEMPS.DLL was built and placed in "C:\DDK\WINDDK\2600.1106\src\print\oemdll\i386". My goal is to generate a random number in PSCommand method of "C:\DDK\WINDDK\2600.1106\src\print\oemdll\oemps\command.cpp" 1.. Using the VC6.0 IDE, I added the following to the pscommand method: LARGE_INTEGER time; ULONG seed; // seed value should be a global or in device extension ULONG rand; // random value KeQuerySystemTime(&time); // only do first time or in init code! seed = (ULONG) time; rand = RtlRandom(&seed); // get random number 2.. I Opened an XP checked build window via the start menu. 3.. Navigated to "C:\DDK\WINDDK\2600.1106\src\print\oemdll\oemps". 4.. Typed "build -cef". Command.cpp failed to compile because KeQuerySystemTime and RtlRandom were 'undeclared identifiers'. Because these two api's are defined in ntddk.h, I added '#include <ntddk.h>' to command.cpp. The compile failed because it could not find ntddk.h. I then changed the line to '#include < C:\DDK\WINDDK\2600.1106\inc\ddk\wxp\ntddk.h>'. The compile failed again because I had several redefinition errors. How do I get api's defined in NTDDK.H to compile in this (oemps) Microsoft provided sample project? Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40908

    - Unidrv: Custom Halftoning on Windows NT Since The *HTCallbackID does not work on Windows NT, we have hooked the IPrintOEMUni::ImageProcessing() callback to apply the custom halftone pattern This Unidrv based PCL driver is for a monochrome printer. The values in our custom halftone pattern are in the range of 0 to 255. Hence to apply this pattern we have the following values in the ColorMode feature of our GP *Feature: ColorMod *rcNameID: =COLOR_PRINTING_MODE_DISPLA *DefaultOption: Mon *Option: Mon *rcNameID: =MONO_DISPLA *Color?: FALS *DevBPP: *DevNumOfPlanes: *DrvBPP: *IPCallbackID: 334 We *have* to convert the source DIB to 1BPP and give it back to the UNIDRV after ImageProcessing() returns. The indexes in the pSrcBitmap to the pColorTable where converted to grayscale values using the formul greyvalue = rgbRed * 0.299 + rgbGreen * 0.587 + rgbBlue * 0.114 We tried dithering the 8BPP grayscale DIB using Flyod-Stienberg algorithm, but are not able to reproduce the same quality DIB the UNIDRV gives us when the *DrvBPP is Are we missing something How does GDI do the dithering from 8BPP to 1 BPP Is it possible to dither 8BPP greyscale to 1BPP Monochrome image of the same quality as GDI's dithering Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40899

    - Question about using IoGetDeviceObjectPointer() in Win98 Hi, All, I develop a WDM Driver that in the AddDevice()£¬I use IoRegisterPlugPlayNotification() to register listen to an USB device's insert/remove.In its callback function, I use following code to get the DeviceObject£º if(IsEqualGUID(dicn->Event, GUID_DEVICE_INTERFACE_ARRIVAL)) { status = IoGetDeviceObjectPointer( dicn->SymbolicLinkName, FILE_ALL_ACCESS, &pFile, &pdo); ................. } I found that in win 2000£¬the pdo return back is tha same as the DeviceObject of the lower driver. So after that, the IRP build by me can be successfully send to the lower device¡£At this time, the dicn->SymbolicLinkName looks like \??\USB#Vid_6513Pid_0089#51e37dc9701#{guid} But in win98, the same codeget different result. IoGetDeviceObjectPointer £¨£©return NTSUCCESS£¬but the pdo return back is different from the DeviceObject of the lower driver. The IRP build by me£¬can't be send to lower driver by IoCallDriver()¡£what's the problem? this time £¬the dicn->SymbolicLinkName looks like \DosDevice\0000000000000002\{guid} Further more, I found that, in win 2000, when I call IoGetDeviceObjectPointer(), the lower driver will recieve an IRP_MJ_CREATE. But in win 98, the lower one can't recieve that IRP. why? It seems so strange. in win98, the IoGetDeviceObjectPointer() can return success, and give a pdo to me, but I can't use it. Could anybody be kind enough to show me some light in that? Thanks in advance! Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40894

    - Need Help on POSUSB Hi , I am implementing a Virtual Com port driver for our Target Device on WinXp. For this, I have taken the reference driver code from Microsoft POSUSB The issue is that while doing an install / Uninstall or Enable / Disable of the Virtual Com Port, the OS asks for a system restart. I am interested in knowing if this is an acceptable behavior as we are planning to do HCT validation of the driver. We have referred to the HCT documentation for the same, but in no place does it say that this restart is acceptable. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find how serial port emulation can be done without the above said behavior. when i Disable/Enable or Install/Uninstall the device, i am not handling the RemovalRelations in the IRP_MN_QUERY_REMOVE_DEVICE.i am just passing that IRP down as STATUS_SUCCESS. after that i am geting IRP_MN_CANCEL_REMOVE_DEVICE this is because of bus driver not process it proper. But as per Documentation you need not worry about this IRP. I would be very grateful if you can guide me in this regards. thanks in advance Regards, Deepak. Tag: ECP parallel port Tag: 40892

Hi,

can anyone recommend me an article about parallel port in the ECP mode,
when it uses DMA transfer etc? I need almost everything - wiring of the
cables, control registers, how it works, how to set up the DMA transfer.

Thanks
