Hi,
I was trying to install a .sys file for driver for running a program.
I have the .sys file named “kbdfiltr.sys”. I copied it to
c:\windows\system32\drivers\ directory. In the registry,
I added a key “kbdfiltr” under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services.
Then, i added the following values
Type - 1
Start - 2 ( We tried 3 also.It is load on demand.)
Display Name - kbdfiltr
Error Control - 1
(I edited the registry manually)
On booting it, i found that the system had added a enum folder under the
kbdfiltr key.
This had
Count - 0
INITSTARTFAILED - 1
Instance - 0
I also found that (Using a tool), the driver (kbdfiltr) is not in “running”
mode and it is in
“stopped” mode. This is a kernel driver.
I don’t find this entry in my “services” folder.So i can’t start it using
“services”.
How do i start this driver?
What is the possible error?
Thanks in advance.
Vandhana.

Assuming this is for NT 4
If you are really writing a keyboard filter then it should start at boot
time
Start = 0
if it is a general KMD then you can set
Start =3
and directly start it by using net start or from “Devices” control panel
applet.

I think you must use the CreateService API call to get it set up properly.
CreateService will also create a key under HKLM/Classes/Root for your
driver and it will also establish a security key when it made the Enum
key.

Hello,
I was trying to install a .sys file. Members of this board suggested me to
use net start command to start it.
When i tried using net start kbdfiltr, i found that it returned an error
1058.
Meaning: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or
because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
But, my driver is not disabled. How can i rectify the problem? any help is
greatly appreciated.
More Details:
I was trying to install a .sys file for driver for running a program.
I have the .sys file named “kbdfiltr.sys”. I copied it to
c:\windows\system32\drivers\ directory. In the registry,
I added a key “kbdfiltr” under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services.
Then, i added the following values
Type - 1
Start - 2 ( We tried 3 also.It is load on demand.)
Display Name - kbdfiltr
Error Control - 1
(I edited the registry manually)
On booting it, i found that the system had added a enum folder under the
kbdfiltr key.
This had
Count - 0
INITSTARTFAILED - 1
Instance - 0
I also found that (Using a tool), the driver (kbdfiltr) is not in
“running”
mode and it is in
“stopped” mode. This is a kernel driver.
I don’t find this entry in my “services” folder.So i can’t start it using
“services”.
Thanks a million
