If you want to pass inicialization params you may read them from the registry.

The registry is a good way, as Julian suggested. Another option is
WMI. There are canned applications that can pass data into and out of a
driver via WMI.

Personally, I’d rather rip my fingernails out than implement WMI interfaces
in a driver.

What I am amazed here is no one has pointed out create a custom IOCTL to
pass in the data? Sorry that is what these are for.

Maybe because the guy specifically said he has no application working with his driver.

The reason is that he specifically stated that he does not have an
application. Yes, an ioctl is easier, but if you don’t want to write an
application, that’s not an option.

One can still write a simple control app to do exactly that. Using WMI
would probably have required the same, and even using the registry if you
want to be nice.

Actually, the way I understood it, the OP wants to pass parameters upon driver initialization and access them right in DriverEntry(). Therefore, IOCTLs don’t apply in this situation - the are not yet available to a driver.
The OP’s task is rather cumbersome under Windows. Things are so much easier under Linux -
you can pass parameters to a driver right on a command line when you load it with insmod…
