Re: assessing winusb potential



if you downloaded the latest WDK (6001) it comes with KMDF 1.7, which would be in wdfcoinstaller01007.dll. even then, you might have the 1.7 coinstaller b/c there was a servicing problem which delayed the release of the coinstaller. You can download the kmdf coinstaller separately, http://blogs.msdn.com/doronh/archive/2008/04/17/the-wdf-1-7-cointstallers-are-now-available.aspx

I am trying to install WinUSB on XP. I think I have reviewed all possible
documentation and am stuck. I installed WDK, used a sample INF from a
Microsoft site, the WinUSB co-installer works fine, however the KMDF does
not. I do not have WdfCoInstaller01005.dll on my system nor can I find out
why or where to get it. Can you help?

[CoInstallers_CopyFiles]
WinUSBCoInstaller.dll
WdfCoInstaller01005.dll

try the 1.5 versions from the 6000 WDK .. the installers you have may not be
able to install downlevle (IIRC, rc2 has coinstallers which can install
downlevel properly)
