I might be guessing, but you may have to make your driver PnP compliant:
you probably will have to implement (if you haven’t yet) routines for
AddDevice/DispatchPnp/DispatchPower in order to get it to work under
Win2K.
Please note I’m not sure about this (I’m novice to driver development),
but I’ve been having some NT/Win2K compatibility problems that make
me “suspect” of such thing. Hope this could be useful…
