Hi,
I’m getting strange crashes with my early-in-development avstream
minidriver, which occur deep in ks.sys. To get to the bottom of the problem,
I tried installing the checked version of ks.sys (which i extracted from the
sp2.cab file in the XP SP2 Checked Build installer package).
After managing to replace my system’s ks.sys (no mean feat thanks to the
system file protection system), I can no longer load my driver! Hardware
manager reports error code 39 (driver corrupt or missing). Switching ks.sys
back lets me load my driver again.
So I must be missing a trick here, how does one get the checked build of
ks.sys installed, without installed the full checked OS?
The bottom of this article *might* help, if you haven’t seen it. My
interpretation is that you need to use checked kernel and HAL at a minimum,
then other components as desired.
Specifically, see the last section of the article.
