I am trying to use .\WINDDK\7600.16385.0\tools\PowerManagement\i386 on
Windows XP. When I attempt to run it I get a GUI pop-up saying " is
not a valid Win32 application." followed by the error message in a console
window where I tried to launch it as “Access Denied”.
I am logged in to an account which is a member of the Administrators group.
It does this on my dev (XP) system where the WDK is installed, on a test
system, and even on a WLK ‘test’ system that when this same utility seems to
be run as part of a logo run, works fine.
When I load the binary up in DEPENDS.EXE it shows ‘issues’ with not being
able to locate TDH.DLL which I cannot locate either.
Am I missing some subtle usage requirement for this tool?
I know when I get a helpful answer I am going to feel like a dope but I need
to do some suspend/resume stress testing on XP and it seems like it should
be a slam-dunk.
TIA,
Dave Cattley
Hmm. According to dumpbin, it seems to want to run on subsystem version ‘6.01’ whereas other tools (at least one other in the same wdk) want to run on ‘5.0.’
I’m not sure which one that is exactly, or if it even matters, but it is different, and the same tool does run on win 7.
mm
Yeah, I just noticed that. So if it has a NT6+ requirement, that would have
been nice to note …
I wonder how WTT then runs those same tests on my XP systems which suspend &
resume under program control just fine during the “Unclassified” test. I
guess I can go figure that out …
Thanks,
Dave Cattley

Path of least resistance (and headache) - move testing to NT6.
DTM evidently uses some mojo-black-magic component to trick XP into going to
sleep on command. Trying to digest the VBScript, Jscript, and other stuff
convinced me that I am not worthy enough to have a simple “go to frigg’n
sleep, come back in two minutes” command for XP.
Oh well.

It looks like the older WDKs have versions of this that might work, so if
you have those lying around you could try one of those (or just give up and
move to NT6).

Scott,
Thanks for the tip. I did check 6001.18002 but the tool does not seem to be
present yet. Digging up older Win7 WDKs, is that what you meant? Or am I
looking for the wrong tool?
Thanks,
Dave Cattley

I have it in my WDKs starting with 6000. I also have it in 6001.18000, I
never bothered installing 6001.18002.
For me it’s under \tools\acpi\pwrtest

Thanks Scott & Martin.
Wow. I told you I would feel like a dope.
BTW, I installed WDTF from the WDK and tried to run the sample script
Sleep_Stress_With_IO.wsf and it complains that WTT Logger is not available.
So much for using WDTF outside of the DTM client…
Cheers,
Dave Cattley

6001.18002 version requires NT6 as well (but at least it runs and tells you
so).
2600.1106 tools\acpi\sleeper is my only friend, I guess.
