directory of sys files

NTDEV
1

Hi,
i have one more problem about INF file. I put the sys files and INF file to my local file and point there while updating the device but it warn me “the system cannot find the file specified”.
Here is a part of my INF file;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Standard INF sections
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[manufacturer]
“Nortel Networks Netas” = DeviceList

[DeviceList]
“APCO25 VPCC IMBE DECODER” = DriverInstall,PCI\VEN_1057&DEV_18C0

[DestinationDirs]
DefaultDestDir=10,System32\Drivers ; 10 means the windows directory (\windows or \winnt)

[SourceDisksFiles]
apco25_vpcc_device_driver.sys=0,r12,

i suspect that sourceDisksFiles or DestinationDirs not true, but i’m not sure.
Note: INF file has prepared by someone.

Does the INF pass ChkINF? It’s usually good at finding these kinds of
things.

As I pointed out earlier, that line says that
apco25_vpcc_device_driver.sys will be in a folder called “r12”, not in
the same folder as the INF file. If it were me, I’d remove the “r12”.

Hi,
I configurated the INF file but something wrong.

I compiled the files (i need two files) and creating .sys files with one
error(warning 28719: Banned API Usage: strcpy...)
I used the ChkInf for checking INF file and it passed with no error and
no warning.
But when i want to install the driver (put the sys files in my directory
and point there), it warned that as; "windows has found the driver files
of device but there is a problem while trying to download / the system
cannot find the file specified"

IF u wonder, here is my INF file, file directory definitions;
Note: card name: vpcc, it is a imbe decoder card.

ADDED: Sometimes windows shows as"essential(in demand etc.) line has
been found in INF file" warning on the driver install screen. -> what
is it mean? Which line they point?

No, that’s wrong, as I just told you. You need to go READ the documentation if you can’t take my advice.

[DriverCopyFiles]
DefaultDestDir=10,system32\Drivers\apco25_vpcc_device_driver.sys,DefaultDestDir=10,driver\driver,0x20 ; Destination, Source, Temporary, Flags

That’s also wrong.
