    - Asynchronous command buffer processing Hi, Is there any way to force DX runtime to issue a drawprimitives2 call with D3DNTHALDP2_SWAPCOMMANDBUFFER flag set? According to MSDN this allows the driver to return immediately and process the buffer asynchronously. but I cannot figure out under what circumstances the flag is set.

    - What is "pass IRP down the PnP stack"? in PortCls? When explaining IO_REMOVE_LOCK and how to use it, Walter Oney says in his book: "Whenever you receive an I/O request ***that you plan to forward down the stack***, you call IoAcquireRemoveLock." I even found a post that emphasizes this issue even more: http://tinyurl.com/277aqn In which he clarifies: "Claim the remove lock ***before passing an IRP down the PnP stack***, and release it when the IRP completes. It's not necessary to use the lock for an IRP that you don't pass down." and continues: "What you're really doing with the remove lock is making sure you don't call IoDetachDevice and don't return from your IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE handler while ***the lower driver*** is processing an IRP you've sent it." (the "***" are my own emphasis) OK - so I understand that calling IoAcquireRemoveLock is not necessary in every type of IRP handling but rather only for those that are "passed down the PnP stack". However, I am unsure what "pass IRP down the PnP stack" means in the context of PortCls (see diagram): http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms790577.aspx Specifically, when I call PcDispatchIrp(), does that constitute "pass IRP down the PnP stack"? And what is "the PnP stack" in this context? I know what an "IRP stack" is, but this is the first time I encounter the term "PnP stack". Could that have been a typo (in Mr. Oney's reply)?

    - KMDF: how can I get usb continuous reader callbacks always in order? Hi all, I'm using the continous reader functions in KMDF for a bulk read transfer on a device that has a serial (CAN) bus. It's important that the data comes in order in the driver's buffer, but I've seen issues on multi processor machines. I know that the callback can run at the same time on different processors, but how can I make sure to lock so all read buffer is processed in the right order? Currently, I use a spinlock in the beginning of the callback, but that is not theoretically safe, as the thread can be interrupted before the spinlock is acquired and the next callback eventually runs on the other processor (or?). I've seen it happend when we used very small buffers for the usb transfer (to get low bus latency). I use several queued reads, up to ten is supported I suppose.

    - Why this asymmetry in driver init/uninit API? For the function DriverEntry() there is the opposite callback DriverUnload(). This is symmetrical (and easy to remember/understand). For IRP_MN_START_DEVICE there is the opposite IRP_MN_STOP_DEVICE. This is symmetrical (and easy to remember/understand). But for the function AddDevice() there is no corresponding (i.e. symmetrical) RemoveDevice(). Instead, there is a minor IRP_MJ_PNP hanlder: IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE. There must be a GOOD reason for this exception/asymmetry, right? If so, what is it? Thanks, Don (who tries to understand a little deeper) Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102911

    - How implement replacement for USB interrupt transfers. Hello, due to bug in Windows USB stack, I need implement replacement for interrupt transfers by some self timed bulk transfer. Now are interrupt transfers pooled with 4ms period (it's high speed device). Simulated interrupt transfers may pool endpoint in 8ms period. First idea is similar as normal handling of interrupt implementation in driver - send URB, wait for completition, wait approximately 7-8ms and again send URB. There are some difficulties starting from precise timing, increased procesor time consuming and so on. Second idea is schedule transfer at specified frame number. Known somebody way how schedule trasfer at specified frame number? Or suggest something other? Slavo Tomascik Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102904

    - Cancel Sub-Irps within a complete routine The situation: I have a USB driver using Bulk transfers. Large Bulk requests are splitted into 512KB chunks. To do so, the main Irp creates multiple sub Irps with a completion routine down the USB stack. After the last sub Irp completes, I complete the main Irp too. Since the device is sometimes not able to deliver enough data, I like to complete the main IRP of this incomplete USB transfer as soon as possible then (so the device would be able to send immediately fresh data for the next overlapped request - in our case an image). The problem: I detect a short transfer in my completion routine of a sub-irp and have to cancel immediately all other sub-irps as well. I know that this is usually done by IoCancelIrp, but I am in an awkward situation here, because I am already in a complete routine. How can I complete the other sub-irps and the main irp from a completion routine? Thanks in advance, Christoph Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102900

    - What Could Possibly Crash PnpRemoveDevice()? I have written this audio driver which is pretty stable when playing/ recording sound. However, when I try to update the driver (via Device Manager), it generates a Fatal System Error: *** Fatal System Error: 0x0000000a (0x00000000,0x00000002,0x00000001,0x80525722) with the following stack trace: nt!RtlpBreakWithStatusInstruction nt!KiBugCheckDebugBreak+0x19 nt!KeBugCheck2+0xa51 nt!KiTrap0E+0x233 nt!PoRegisterDeviceForIdleDetection+0x46 nt!PoRunDownDeviceObject+0x1c nt!IoDeleteDevice+0x4d portcls!PnpRemoveDevice+0x8f portcls!DispatchPnp+0xce portcls!PcDispatchIrp+0x34 adrvr!MyPnpHandler+0x236 <<<<<<< only function that is mine nt!IopfCallDriver+0x31 nt!IopSynchronousCall+0xb7 nt!IopRemoveDevice+0x93 nt!IopRemoveLockedDeviceNode+0x160 nt!IopDeleteLockedDeviceNode+0x34 nt!IopDeleteLockedDeviceNodes+0x3f nt!PiProcessQueryRemoveAndEject+0x76b nt!PiProcessTargetDeviceEvent+0x2a nt!PiWalkDeviceList+0x122 nt!ExpWorkerThread+0x100 nt!PspSystemThreadStartup+0x34 nt!KiThreadStartup+0x16 Clearly, bugcheck analysis gives me a strong clue where to look for: MyPnpHandler(). Well, what I do in MyPnpHandler() is basically this: NTSTATUS YzPnpHandler(IN PDEVICE_OBJECT fdo, IN PIRP irp) { PAGED_CODE(); ASSERT(fdo != NULL); ASSERT(irp != NULL); if (OurFDO(fdo) && pIoStackLocation->MinorFunction == IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE) { // stop thread and wait for its exit } return ( PcDispatchIrp(fdo, irp) ); // pass the IRPs on to PortCls } It seems that one of (or both?) paramaters to PcDispatchIrp are invalid by the time PcDispatchIrp is called? But how is this possible? as seen in my code, both fdo and irp are used successfully and *never modified* until they reach PcDispatchIrp(fdo, irp). How is this possible?

    - Virtual COM Port I need to develop a Virtual COM port drive, which needs to act as a bridge between legacy applications (using COM ports) and a USB driver (Which is already available). To the legacy applications, this should look/feel/act like a COM port, but internally, the driver needs to communicate with the USB driver for the needful. I have stared with the serail driver sample provided with DDK as the base, is that the right place to start? Any design guidelines I should keep in mind? Also, is there any available sample code, which can be used for reference. Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102891

    - enabling WDK diskperf output I'm using WDK diskperf sample to monitor the disk accesses. I have few questions: 1. How can I enable the output of DbgPrint on WinDbg console or to some other file? I see that DiskPerfDebug is always set to 0 and so the following condition will be satisfied only for DebugPrintLevel=0. if ((DebugPrintLevel <= (DiskPerfDebug & 0x0000ffff)) || ((1 << (DebugPrintLevel + 15)) & DiskPerfDebug)) { DbgPrint(DebugMessage, ap); } Anyways I removed the above condition and call DbgPrint always. But still I do not see any output on WinDbg. Also I changed the: nt!kd_default_mask in winDbg to the following: dd nt!kd_default_mask 81cfbeb8 ffffffff 00000000 00000000 00000000 81cfbec8 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 81cfbed8 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 81cfbee8 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 81cfbef8 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 81cfbf08 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 81cfbf18 00000000 00000001 00000000 00000000 81cfbf28 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 But no luck.

    - Can touchpad driver be wrapped? Is it possible to create a wrapper for an OEM touchpad driver (Synaptics, Alps, etc) that intercepts the raw data from the touchpad driver and rewrites it before passing it along to Windows itself (Vista in particular, if it matters)? For the past few months I've been shopping for a new laptop, and it's increasingly difficult to get one with a pointer stick instead of/in addition to a touchpad.The problem is, I despise touchpads. Strangely, I actually LIKED the marble-like trackball on the laptop I had back in college (DEC HiNote Ultra). I spent a few hours thinking about what specifically irritated me about touchpads, and finally nailed down a good part of the answer: touchpad behavior is optimized for people using it with their index finger, not for people trying to treat it like a fake trackball and use it with their thumb while the fingers remain over the keyboard. The X and Y axes are scaled the same, even though the thumb's range of motion along the X axis is a lot more restricted than its motion along the Y axis. Moreover, the tracking algorithm doesn't take into account the fact that someone trying to treat the touchpad like a fake trackball and move the pointer diagonally (say, towards the lower-left corner of the screen) is going to move their thumb in a curved trajectory. So... the idea I came up with was to write a wedge/wrapper that sits between the raw Synaptics/Alps touchpad driver and Windows, and rewrites its output on the fly so that it DOES mimic the behavior of a trackball. The big question is, WHERE in the API would something like this be handled? Is there a whitepaper/book/article somewhere that explores this issue? Or, god forbid, has someone already written a driver (or at least the skeleton of one) that does something like this? I know I can't be the only person who hates the way touchpads work and has thought about trying to change that behavior to something more tolerable :) Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102856

    - IRP_MJ_READ problem I have an application running on Windows Server 2003, that, according to PortMon monitoring software, is using calls to IRP_MJ_READ to read data from a serial port. Normally, to read a 37 byte message (for example), there will be a series of 4 calls to IRP_MJ_READ that result in 8 bytes of data from each read, then a final call that reads the final 5 bytes. Everything works fine. Occasonally, during the series of reads (let's say the 3rd read for example), the call to IRP_MJ_READ will result in 16 bytes of data (32 bytes read total so far), and no more calls to IRP_MJ_READ. The final 5 bytes of data are forever lost (a protocol analyzer trace shows that the entire 37 bytes entered the DB9 connector on the back of tyhe server). The application that was waiting for the data continues to issue calls to IOCTL_SERIAL_GET_COMMSTATUS, IOCTL_SERIAL_GET_MODEMSTATUS, and IOCTL_SERIAL_WAIT_ON_MASK, but the remaing 5 bytes never show up, so it times out while waiting for an ETX character that is at the end of the missing bytes. Any ideas on what could be causing this? I am not a developer, but am stuck in the middle of a lot of finger pointing between the server manufacturer (with their hardened drivers) and the application developer that is using the serial data. Any help you could give me that would give me some "ammo" so I can lean on the appropriate vendor would be helpful. Thank you. Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102853

    - GetOverlappedResult() and IoStatus.Information The MSDN documentation for lpNumberOfBytesTransferred in GetOverlappedResult() says: BOOL WINAPI GetOverlappedResult( __in HANDLE hFile, __in LPOVERLAPPED lpOverlapped, __out LPDWORD lpNumberOfBytesTransferred, __in BOOL bWait ); >>> lpNumberOfBytesTransferred "A pointer to a variable that receives the number of bytes that were actually transferred by a read or *write* operation. For a DeviceIoControl operation, this is the number of bytes of output data returned by the device driver." Now, for the life of me, I just don't seem to understand a very basic issue here: What is that mystical "the number of bytes of output data returned by the device driver" when doing a WRITE operation (via a DeviceIoControl call)? Case in question: I wrote a driver that responds to DeviceIoControl() commands, supporting overlapped I/O in both read and write directions. With read I have no problems. However, with write, I just don't seem to get the crux of this lpNumberOfBytesTransferred (or IoStatus.Information in the driver). In my driver, when I do: pIRP->IoStatus.Information = actualNumberWritten; // 0 <= int <= 512 The GetOverlappedResult() call on the user mode side (the application that uses the driver) crashes the program! But when I do: pIRP->IoStatus.Information = pIRPStack->Parameters.DeviceIoControl.OutputBufferLength; The program doesn't crash. Now... I thought that, just as the GetOverlappedResult() documentation says, IoStatus.Information should return "the number of bytes that were actually transferred by a write operation". So what's going on here? Why must IoStatus.Information, on a DeviceIoControl *write* operation, return the size of the output buffer instead of "the number of bytes that were actually transferred by a write operation"? What am I missing here? Thanks, Don Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102851

    - PM IRPs won't complete in KMDF bus driver Hi, I have a problem with a KMDF bus driver where the bus driver does not transition its stack back to D0 upon receiving a request on its PDOs to transition to D0 as a result of system entering S0. This problem happens intermittently, only on some hosts and mainly on Vista (occasionally seen on Win2k and XP). This is the scenario: host is put in S1 state and awoken after 20s (using WDTF) and this cycles through. After few cycles, screen comes up as either blank or blank with the mouse pointer frozen. System is not responsive and has to be cold-restarted. If I break into the debugger at this time, stack backtrace shows CPUs (multiprocessor system) are idle and there doesn't seem to be any deadlocks. There are several power IRPs active in the system at this point, the ones of my interest being child FDOs' SET_POWER S0s being pended on SET_POWER D0s it had sent. SET_POWER D0s are then pending in the bus driver for unknown reason. Looking at the KMDF logs, I can see that PDOs have received the SET_POWER D0 IRP, but for some reason they are waiting for the parent transition to D0 which never seems to happen. I have included the results of !WDFDEVICE for child PDO and parent bus FDO as well as last bits of KMDF logs. Could this be due to a potential race condition in the Framework as problem seems to occur more frequently when the number of childs is increased? As power mangement is handled by the Framework, I couldn't think of a way to take this any further. What else would you recommend to gather more information on this?

    - IRP_URB_DOUBLE_SUBMIT problem Hi, I am getting a crash in my driver in long hour tests. Every time the bugcheck (0xFE) identifies the problem as IRP_URB_DOUBLE_SUBMIT. The documentation of this says : The caller has submitted an irp that is already pending in the USB bus driver. However nowhere in my driver I am re-using an IRP ! Every time I allocate an IRP and destroy it in the completion. I assume that IoAllocateIrp will every time give me a fresh IRP and so same IRP will never be submitted to USB subsystem. I am therefore perplexed why it would happen so. Is it that the bugcheck can also occur for some other case than irp resubmitting? I also observe that when I try to get the details of the IRP in question, I get "Could not read device object or _DEVICE_OBJECT not found" message for the device object associated with the IRP. Any pointers will be great appreciated. Thanks and Regards, Abhijit Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102772

    - Power management problem in 5.1 NDIS miniport driver Hi, all I'm currently implementing the power management logic in the NDIS miniport driver of our PCI wireless card. We would like our driver to make sure the card is in D0 state during the driver initialization. But there seems to be a problem. Obviously, I can't access our PCI configuration space in DriverEntry, since at this stage the driver doesn't even know what devce it's going to work with, let alone having its configuration space mapped. I thought I'd take care of the transition to D0 in our MiniportInitialize callback, but the thing is this callback is not even called when the card happens to be in D3 state upon drier initialization. I used a debugger to see what other NDIS drivers do. I've found out that, for instance, when the DriverEntry function of RealTek 8139 card's driver (also NDIS 5.1. based) is called, the device is always in D3 state (I used !pci command of WinDbg to examine the card's PCI configuration space). Then I set breakpoints on every callback function registered by the call to NdisMRegisterMiniport from DriverEntry. The first callback to be called was InitializeHandler and, somehow, by the time it was called the card's power state had already been changed to D0! I wonder what and how caused this to happen, as this is precisely what I need my driver to be capable of doing. I do believe I could achieve this in a NDIS 6.0 driver - probably, providing an optional handler for AddDevice IRP would give me an appropriate context for writing to the configuration space causing the device to switch to D0. But I really have no idea how this could be done in an NDIS 5.1 driver. Yet, this is precisely what the RealTek 8139 driver manages to pull off. Any help on the issue will be highly appreciated.

    - pci slot (device) number Hi, in the past my (WDM based) driver needed to extract the pci bus number and the slot (device - i.e the location on the bus) number for a device. this was easy to do using the HalGetBusData routines. nowdays, these routine are obsolete and my new driver is WDF based. though, i still need to get these numbers (bus & slot(device) numbers) and having trouble with the device number. using the WDF routine "WdfDeviceAllocAndQueryProperty" i'm able to retrieve the bus number easily using the "DevicePropertyBusNumber" prperty. BUT, extracting the slot(device) number is something i cant figure out (i can only get it by using the WdfDeviceAllocAndQueryProperty routine with a DevicePropertyLocationInformation attribute but then i have to parse a string which not seems like a good way). so, my question is how is the best way to replace the HalGetBusData routine for extracting a devices slot(device) number. can i somehoe use the PCI_SLOT_NUMBER structure along with "IRP_MN_READ_CONFIG" ? thanks a lot, kobi.

    - Bulk transfer with UVC driver Hi, I am developing an UVC device. In order to increase the transfer rate I'd like to use a bulk endpoint for the video transfer. I can successfully enumerate and create a filter graph with my device, but as soon as I start the graph, my machine reboots. Note that this does not happen if I use an isochronous endpoint. The blue screen error that shows up is 0x0000007F with the first parameter 0x00000000 (division by zero). Is bulk transfer supported for the current xp sp2 usbvideo.sys driver? Is this a known bug? What's the best setup to debug this situation? Any other hint? Thanks AT Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102752

    - windbg problem - still showing old structures hi all, I modified a DDK sample ( many structures changed, but same names ) and when i use windbg, it still shows the old structure fields! ( outdated stale info ). since, i was not sure from where windbg picks up this stale symbol info, I renamed most of the stuff, deleted many leftover intermediate files ( like .OBJ ) from the original DDK sample , still WINDBG showing the old structure fields. Has anybody faced this and how to fix this. All trivial things were tried, like !sym noisy and .reload commands. The newly built PDB file is only loaded. Able to set BPs, etc * the DDK sample in question is network E100BEX * latest windbg version 6.8.0004.0. About box also shows 5.0 ( build 2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.....:sp2 ) * tried both new DDK versions , build 6000 & 6001 * target VISTA and host xp-sp2 thro 1394 * local symbols any clues? thx ugk Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102749

    - How to disable an intermediate driver? When I open the networking connections and check one connection's properties, i could see the im driver i made was listed in the items list. There is a check box on the left of each item, if i uncheck the box, which means that the item is to be disabled. So the question is What a "disable" means in this circumstance? Does it means that the corresponding service will be stopped, or the driver will be unload, or any other else? I just want to know... The other question is that how can i write an application to control the status of this? That is through the code to contorl the "enable" or "disable". I searched google but could not find some information about it. Thank you for any advice... Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102746

    - TCP Stop Working I have an ndis miniport driver that I've developed. ARP, TCP, ICMP, etc, all seem to work fine. But when I run an extened test that sends data over a socket for about 10 minutes straight, TCP stops working on the entire system. Other protcols are still working, because ping works just fine. It's not just my miniport interface that doesn't work. I can't get TCP to work on any network interface. When I try to run ipconfig I get the following error "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application." I also tried running Ethereal after the error occurred, and it can't even find any interfaces to bind to. I have driver verifier turned on my driver, and no errors were detected. Has anyone ran into this condition before? How do you debug a system in this state? Thanks, Michael Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102740

As has been noted in other threads this fails under Vista with an access denied message. (I haven't seen this change noted in MSDN documentation.) The work around given in the threads is to write a driver to do the write. Since this is an apparent common problem and I have never before written a driver myself, I was hoping there might be some example source code or hopefully an installable driver already avaialble. Does anybody know of any? Thanks in advance. Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102739

    - PtSendComplete Adapter=NULL My intermediate driver is crashing on random occations at PtSendComplete() it seem like the Adapter become NULL when the driver call NdisMSendComplete( TransportHandle, OriginalPacket, Status ); . However the Adapter is always valid until NdisMSendComplete get call. below is my seudocode: VOID PtSendComplete(IN NDIS_HANDLE ProtocolBindingContext, IN PNDIS_PACKET Packet, IN NDIS_STATUS Status ) { -passed lower MP adapter context -get fully iniialized context -complete the original packet back to the higher layer -get the original packet, passed down from the transport -deallocate the chained buffers -Check if this is the duplicate packet -recyle the resources if done witht the copy of the packet -complete the original packet if it came from an upper transport -need to use the original send adapter to pass the completed packet back to the one that sent it. TransportHandle = OriginalAdapter->IMNdisHandle; NdisInterlockedIncrement(&Adapter->PtSendCompleteCount); ===>invalid handle happend here.<=== NdisMSendComplete( TransportHandle, OriginalPacket, Status ); } If I have a condition to check for NULL adapter, what will it happend if it NULL? is this become memory leak? Why is the adapter become NULL in the middle of the process? how do I avoid the Adapter become NULL so it not going to BSOD? Thanks Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102738

    - How do you make a WDF driver create .Raw & .Translated resources? I'm trying to convert a legacy device driver, which was created with BlueWater's DriverWizard, to WDF. The legacy driver creates MyDriverName.Raw & MyDriverName.Translated resources under MACHINE\HARDWARE\RESOURCEMAP\PnP Manager\PnpManager, but the WDF driver does not. How do I make the WDF driver create these resources? /Russ Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102735

    - Dispatch and Completion routine synchronisation Dear all, I am a little confused because I keep finding contradicting information about this issue. In a dispatch routine, I set a completion routine and then forward the Irp to the lower driver. Something like this: IoSetCompletionRoutine(Irp, CompletionRoutine, &Event, NULL, NULL, NULL); Status = IoCallDriver(...); if (Status == STATUS_PENDING) KeWaitForSingleObject(...); ... Do some processing... IoCompleteRequest(...); return (Status); So, at the moment my completion routine is tiny and looks a little like this: KeSetEvent(...); return (STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED); Requirements for the completion routine is to just signal an event so my dispatch routine has an opportunity to do some processing. I've looked at lots of sample code, DDK docs and newsgroup postings and I still am not exactly sure what I should do in terms of what I do in the completion routine and what NTSTATUS value I return from the dispatch routine. 1. Should I check for Irp->PendingReturned and call IoMarkIrpPending(Irp) in the completion routine? (The WDK docs imply that I do not because my completion routine is just signalling an event, but other resources state that the synchronicity of the Irp must be propogated). 2. I assume that because I have halted completion processing with STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED) , I need to call IoCompleteRequest(...) to allow completion processing to continue. 3. What do I return from my dispatch routine? The status of IoCallDriver or Irp->IoStatus.Status? It feels like I have changed the synchronicity of the Irp so it should be Irp->IoStatus.Status.

    - IRP_MJ_READ/IRP_MJ_WRITE Buffer Confusion. Dear all, I am confused about which buffer is of interest in read/write dispatch routines (and their completion routines). I understand the differences between direct, buffered and neither buffers. So far, I've concluded that: 1. If Irp->MdlAdress exists, use that. 2. If the lower device object Flags specify DO_BUFFERED_IO then use Irp->SystemAddress.Buffered. 3. If none of the above hold true, then use Irp->UserBuffer. Quite frankly, the above rules makes me nervous because I made them up as I went along! What are the exact rules I should follow? Many thanks in advance!

    - AVStream driver show upside-down video for RGB24 format Dear All, I wrote a avstream video capture driver based on the avshws driver sample code. But I found that the FormatRGB24Bpp_Capture structure's bimHeader.biHeight is -D_Y. It's negative value. It will fail to connect the Video renderer in graphedit. If I change it to positive D_Y, then it can render OK. But the video is upside-down. I searched the answer in the web, it looks the negative Height is indicate the bottom-up bitmap. The imageSynth will create a bottom-up frame data to fill into the mapping buffer of the stream queue. But my PCI device can generate only top-down video. And I don't want to use CPU to flip the video data. Is there any way to fix this problem? I ever tried to return my pin's descriptor VideoInfoHeader in the IntersectHandler routine. If can pass the pin connection with negative Height value and the video is correct showing. But the negative Height setting will cause black display in YUY2 format when use AMCAP to preview. Any response is appreciated! Best regards Jerry Pan Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102724

    - Regarding DTM set up for LAN. Hi, I am doing whql test for LAN device driver (Vista driver). For the DTM set up of LAN, is it Ok if I use one client machine with XP OS and another client machine with Vista OS ? More precisely the NDIS test server will be mchine with XP loaded and the NDIS client machine will be with vista loaded. Is it ok? This is the same setup for DTM setuo of LAN provided in whql help docs . Need immediate help. Rgds, Ram Tag: how to print the "expanded" TOC Tag: 102717

    - Creating a virtual network card (VLAN) from a script I'm looking for a way to create a virtual network card from a script instead of Windows UI.. I succeeded to install the Protocol driver from a script but didn't find a way to create new VLANs without using the UI. I used the notify dll that comes with mux sample in WDDK. My questions are: - Can I expose a new method in my notify dll for adding a new VLAN, and call it from a script? - Is there a generic tool that makes it? - Do you have a sample code?
