Re: Getting an XP driver to work on Vista



You need to at a minimum capture the crash dump and then run WinDBG and
perform a
!analyze on the dump. You will probably need to connect WinDBG and debug
the code. But asking about crashes without the output from !analyze, is
pretty useless since the group will not have enough to go on.

Hi

I am quite a novice wrt to driver development...
However with help and suggestions and several newsgroup threads, I was
able to convert the MS DDK sample testcap into a successful "Virtual
Webcam" device and write user mode code to push videos into it.

Now I need to get ot to work on vista.

The driver bluescreens immediately on installation on vista and I
havent a clue what I am supposed to do.

This driver is stable on Windows XP and I havent had it bluescreen
after I had gotten the code to work properly.

What should i start with?

Vivek
