I have created a prototype class driver which claims certain IDE/SCSI disks. It currently has no entry points (DriverObject->MajorFunction[IRP_MJ_*] not set). It works fine except that the name of the disk under my class in device manager appears as the one picked from my class driver inf file. I need to name that device same as it would appear when under the normal “Disk Drives” as claimed by disk.sys. e.g, a Hitachi drive will appear as “HITACHI ZS74652”. Any pointers? Thank you.
I tried using IoSetDevicePropertyData (PdoCreatedByPortDriver, …) - even though the function suceeds and IoGetDevicePropertyData returned the new value set by my driver but device manager still presents the name from the inf file.
Do I need to create a co-installer to achieve this?
help? Thank you.
Since you claim you are not processing any pnp IRPs (or any other
IRPs) there is no other information available about your device. I
think you have to process pnp irps at a minimum.

Thank you. which pnp irp has the “friendly name” information or the information that is used to display name in device manager ?
