Avinash,
Copied below is a modified version of the NDISUIO protocol driver INF
that will install that driver in Windows 98. Also, be aware that the
string that is passed to your driver’s bind handler will be an ANSI
string. If you only use that pointer to turn around and call
NdisOpenAdapter you’ll be fine. However, if you manipulate it at all
(like NDISUIO does to save a copy), you will need to be aware of this
difference. You could merge this INF with your existing INF to make a
multi-platform INF that will install the driver in 9X and 2K/XP with the
same INF. Or you can use this INF standalone.
You will also notice the DeviceID in the INF.

Subject: [ntdev] driver install
Hello all,
I’m working on some NDIS protocol drivers. I’m facing some issues.
Could someone give me some feedbacks on this.
-
I need to install the driver at runtime,in case it is not already
installed. There is a sample code in the win2k ddk on this. However
it requires me to pass a Device ID to it. Can someone tell me what
id is this?
-
Also my driver setup contains two files:
mydriver.inf and mydriver.sys. This installs fine on a
win 2k/XP platform , however when I try to install it on a Win 98
platform , I get some errors during install. Do I need to change the
contents in the INF file…? Also can I use .sys files for my driver on
Win98 or do I need to create a .vxd file?
Thankyou,
Avinash
