Since we were discussing Inno Setup the other day and I just went through
some pain, I thought I’d share and hopefully help someone else.
I’ve always created an install batch file which calls rundll32 and does the
install of my drivers. It’s always worked great, until Vista 64. Since
Inno Setup is a 32-bit program, redirection is on (to the SysWow64 folder),
but they are smart and disable it, which made me think I’d be OK.
Unfortunately, when Inno launched my batch file, it apparently got a 32-bit
cmd.exe, which ran the 32-bit rundll32 which put my 64-bit driver in the
SysWow64\drivers folder.
Soo… to install a 64-bit driver from the 32-bit Inno setup, use something
like the following in your .iss file (especially the part in the Run
section):
function IsX64: Boolean;
begin
Result := IsWin64 and (ProcessorArchitecture = paX64);
end;
function IsIA64: Boolean;
begin
Result := IsWin64 and (ProcessorArchitecture = paIA64);
end;
function Isx86: Boolean;
begin
Result := not IsWin64;
end;

I have seen this break with SP1. Installing an INF on XP/2003 x64 and Vista
SP0 calling the 32 bit version of setupApi from a Wow64 process correctly
installs drivers to the System32\drivers directory, on Vista SP1 it installs
to the Syswow64\drivers directory which never makes sense. The solution is
to make sure to run the 64 bit version of rundll32.exe (argh).

I looked at ArchitecturesInstallIn64BitMode, but wanted to handle x86, x64
and IA64 all in one installer. Does that work with this method?

Here’s something easier (the code for detecting install arc is already
included with Inno):

ArchitecturesInstallIn64BitMode=x64

Yep. Our installation is a 32-bit Inno exe that install both x86 and x64
drivers. I can send you the sample if you want. (can’t attach it to NTFSD)
