ISA install problem under win2000

NTDEV
1

I am trying to create a wizard that will allow the user to install an ISA
card under win2000. The card requires that an IOConfig,IRQConfig and
MemConfig be set.
I used the install example from the ddk
(\src\general\setup\install\install.c) as a starting point. This will
install my driver. But until I use device manager to setup the
IOConfig,IRQConfig and MemConfig the card will not start. Once these are
set I reboot and everything works.
I used the Hardware wizard to install the ISA card. I selected my card and
the first question that it askes me is that I need to specify my resources.
It then allows me to configure the IOConfig,IRQConfig and MemConfig. It
also uses my defaults selections that I have set in the LogConfig section
of the INF file.

[ISA.LogConfig]
ConfigPriority=HARDRECONFIG
IOConfig=10@380-3ff%fff0(3ff::),10@200-37f%fff0(3ff::slight_smile:
IRQConfig=5,9,10,11,12
MemConfig=8000@c0000-fffff%ffff8000

I belive that my INF file is setup correctly since the hardware wizard
works correctly. Any thoughts on how I can get my install wizard to ask for
the resource values?

I am assuming you are using a Non-PnP/Legacy Device.

Have you though of using a class installer? In other words, a filter for
the installation program (Installation Wizard) catures to installation
commands that were used (See Win2k DDK Documentation). . . . . .

Be Aware. If you are writing your own software to write out resource
configuration, you may not be able to find the information you need. I
tried working with Microsoft and was unable to get that information from
them (If you find out how please let me know).
