I was getting to some serious testing on a driver and thought it
appropriate for things to run totally clean for extended time periods with
driver verifier turned on for the whole system.
I’m discovering that driver verifier finds issues with a pretty clean
install, before I even load my driver.
Are my expectations unrealistic, or should a correctly working clean OS run
with no problems found by driver verifier? For example, it seems like I can
take a clean OS install (WinXP on a SMP system), load a popular DVD player
app, and driver verifier reports low level kernel memory corruption on SCSI
completion. It’s nice and repeatable, even if I change peripheral
cards/drives. Except for the DVD Player app, all drivers come with WinXP.
Is my assumption that all drivers that come with the OS should be driver
verifier clean a silly assumption?
There have been some comments here recently that many SMP motherboards are
broken, and perhaps driver verifier finds those glitches?
