Re: Windows: How to support 2 chip in a single driver?



All drivers on Windows should support multiple copies of the same device.
If the devices are different, the driver can support them, but you need to
have a mechanism (normally in the hardware) to flag which device it is, then
have conditional code to support the differences when talking to the
hardware where needed.
