Hi,
   Can we load a ".sys" file from kernal mode driver.
  
    We have one driver with .sys extension, I am trying to write some other
driver with more functionalities. In order to reduce reusability I like to
load the previous .sys driver and use some of its functionalities.
 
P.S : I know that we can load ".dl"l but I don't know how to load .sys and
use its functionalities.

       Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks
Santhosh.
