Re: assessing winusb potential

Hello Doron,

Is 6000 WDK available for download?
I downloaded the version 1.7 (WDK 6001.17048) from the Microsoft Connect
site http://connect.microsoft.com/

If available, Please can you send me the version 1.5 files to my mail ID
neelesh.kadam@xxxxxxxxx?

Thanks
Neel

downlevel properly)

Thanks dmm for your inputs.

I gone through many posting on the given link but my problem of installing
the winusb.sys driver for the USB Stick is not solved (Using the INF file
details provided my microsoft in "WinUsb_HowTo.doc") .

I am using the following WDK files (WDK - Windows Server 2008 RC1) for the
installation on WinXP:
1). WinUSBCoInstaller.dll
2). WdfCoInstaller01007.dll
3). WUDFUpdate_01007.dll
& INF file from the ""WinUsb_HowTo.doc"

I am installing the driver from "Device Manager->Update Driver" on the
connected "USB Mass storage Device".
Intallation start copying & installing "WinUSBCoInstaller.dll" &
"WdfCoInstaller01007.dll" but at the end, it displays the message dialog
"Cannot install this hardware", "There was a problem installing this
hardware".

Also, when I select the device in Device Manager and check the driver
details, then I found that the WINUSB.SYS is NOT installed (instead the
default USBTOR.SYS is installed).

I think there is problem withe INF file only.
What could be the problem?
Is this INF file not proper?
Is the WDK files not proper?

Thanks
Neel

Hi Neel

I checked my notes and this is what I have:

Goto the OSR Online site
http://www.osronline.com/cf.cfm?PageURL=showlists.CFM?list=NTDEV and
search
for "winusb." There is a lot of good information there on editing your
inf
file so that the co-installers will execute properly.

Hi dmm,

Please could you tell me, how did you install the winusb.sys?

I tried it 100 times but still not able to succeed.
I followed the instructions given in "WinUsb_HowTo.doc" which is from
Microsoft.
I tried it on internet with many options. But no use.

I am using USB stick (Pen drive) device for installation.

Thanks,
Neel

Thanks Don -- just like you said. During the inf/installation
process, the
winusb.sys is extracted and copied to directory
"\windows\system32\driver."

Hi Don

I have installed WinDDK 6000 (which targets both vista and xp) on
my PC.
I
search the entire DDK for files "winusb.sys" and "winusb.dll" but
I get
no
hits.

Thanks
dmm

My company manufactures a USB device that may attach to any
USB port
on
the
PC but only one such device is allowed per PC. Our device is
currently
driven by an HID kernel-mode driver in the W2k/XP platforms
and
basically
performs read/write operations aside from the power/pnp
functionality.

If I am not mistaken, the WinUSB environment offers an
attractive
alternative for us in the Vista platform. Is this true or
should we
be
looking at UMDF?

If WinUSB is suitable, where may I download the winusb.sys and
.dll
files
for testing on XP?

Thanks
dmm
