Hi

I need to sign my driver for installation on 64 bit OS, i created
catalog file using test certificate  but it doesn't work on other
machines. It says invalid certificate.  Can i use this test
certificate on other machines ,if not then how can i generate test
certficate for installing on multiple boxes.

Thanks,
Hitesh

you should create .cat file using makecat tool and then sign your
driver using signtool with proper certificate.
