Re: IoReadPartitionTableEx

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

as far as i can tell, this can only be returned by the storage stack itself. the Io code does not have this error code explicitly.

Hello

In my driver, a call to IoReadPartitionTableEx returns with
STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED whereas IoReadPartitionTable returns successfully.
Running on WindowsXP with most latest service packs, building the driver with
WDK6000. When compiling with IoReadPartitionTable call in the code, get a
warning about the function being deprecated

.
