Hi Doran and others,

This doesn't work for me.
I'm using the `Windows Vista and Windows Server Longhorn x86 Checked Build
Environment' on Vista 32bit. And I'm getting this error when trying to
install the fakemodem with devcon:

C:\WinDDK\6000\srcTry\kmdf\fakemodem\objchk_wlh_x86\i386>devcon.exe -r
install m
dmfake.inf {b85b7c50-6a01-11d2-b841-00c04fad5171}\fakemodem
Device node created. Install is complete when drivers are installed...
Updating drivers for {b85b7c50-6a01-11d2-b841-00c04fad5171}\fakemodem from
C:\WinDDK\6000\srcTry\kmdf\fakemodem\objchk_wlh_x86\i386\mdmfake.inf.
devcon.exe failed.

I have no idea what is causing it to fail, since I haven't altered the
example in any way.. Does anyone have a fix?

It's pretty darned hard to help you when you haven't given a single clue,
like the setupapi.log messages that probably would have pinpointed it.

However, given the little information you have here, my guess is that you
haven't copied wdfcoinstaller01005.dll into the same directory as the
driver. All KMDF drivers need the co-installer.
