All,
I have taken over this adventure from the person who originally posted
this so forgive me if I repeat some things.
I am writing a utility drive which needs to attach to a 1394 OHCI
device.
I have used the KMDF to develop a very light weight driver at this time
and tried to attach.
I used device manager to select node and then update driver.
Choose my inf and what happens is it appears that it used my inf but
when I look under Driver File Details, it states ohci1394.sys instead of
my driver.
Any ideas how to get the system to allow my driver to bind?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Thanks very much for the information! I’ll start looking at devcon,
KMDF, and the SetupDI family of API calls. Sounds like this is exactly
what I need.Thanks again for the help,
