It then goes on to say: In the printer's resource DLL, specify ...
Forgive me for being a complete newbie with Windows DDK.

Hi!, I want to write a driver (in c) that can "catch" the events for reading and writing on hard disk. My problem is that I do not know how can I listen the system bus to treat these events. I use Microsoft DDK. Thank you! ...

I want to emulate a joystick using keypresses and/or mouse input. So other programs/games will think that user is using a joystick while he is using a mouse. So the program will install kindof a driver for fake usb or fake an existing joystick. There is an existing program called PPJoy which does the same thing but sadly its closed sou...
Using the Microsoft Driver Development Kit (DDK), this error plagued me as I attempted even to build the default drivers included with the DDK. I had a some difficulty in tracking down the cause and solution through Google. In an effort to aid others who may experience this same problem, I am documenting it here. Error: "fatal error U...
Hiyas, The link to the Windows 7 DDK (or WDK) is not something I seem to be able to get to. I need to write a driver that will convert the content to XPS and then do something with it. The "do something" is easy, but its the first part I'm not sure of. I found links to the Win7 WDK but as I said above I can't get to it (my company has ...
I need to create a WDM driver that emulates a device that is not present. The driver needs to be loaded when the O/S boots, opened and closed via SetupDiXXX and CreateFile, needs to respond to DeviceIoControl, etc. I have the driver coded, but XP refuses to load it. The system event viewer says: The MyDevice service failed to sta...
Hello How to write simpliest audio virtual device driver in WinXP? I know that one way is to write a WDM driver but I suppose it is not an easyly task. I need to implement some audio filtering for a Flash based application. Unfortunatelly it seems that it is the only way to do it - outside a Flash, by a device driver, then a Flash app c...
I'll try to be brief, but fully descriptive: This is Windows-specific. Using the Windows Driver Development Kit (DDK). I am writing a Kernel Mode Driver (KMD) for the first time, having no prior experience in Kernel Mode. I am playing around currently with the "scanner" mini-filter sample which comes with the DDK, and expanding upon it...
Hi there! I am a beginner at DDK/WDM driver developing field. I have a task which involves porting a virtual device driver from x86 to x64 (intel). I got the source code, I modified it a bit and compiled it succesfuly with DDK (build environments). But when I tried to load it on a ia64 Windows7 machine it didn't want to load. Then I tri...

Hello, Many Zw* functions that work with files (such as ZwCreateFile) need to be called at PASSIVE_LEVEL with APCs enabled: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff566424%28VS.85%29.aspx. This is because, internally, I/O operations are asynchronously and the completion of an operation is delivered through an APC (correct me if I'm wro...
Hello, in many cases callbacks registered by a mini-filter (pre/post operations) are called at PASSIVE_LEVEL. In case the pre-callback decides that it needs to do some work after the completion of some operation, it will ask the filter-manager to call the post-callback for that operation. The documentation states that if the pre-callba...
I've been learning how to write drivers with the Windows DDK recently. After creating a few test drivers experimenting with system threads and synchronization, I decided to step it up a notch and write a driver that actually does something, albeit something useless. Currently, my driver connects to my other computer using Winsock Kernel ...
In Verifier Dialog, there is a window to select drivers to verify. The list control has 4 column. 1. Verify? 2. Driver name. 3. Provider 4. Version My driver's provider and version are represented as "unknown". I don't know how can I set these values. Where can I set this value? By SignTool? Or Resource file? Yes, this is not a big ...
