Re: Running a driver application



sirish,

Would you mind to explain what you meant by "driver application"?
Is it an installer for a driver or something else?

If you're talking about a driver installer...
There could be many reasons why it runs differently on XPe vs XPP. E.g.:
- the installer checks for the OS version to change the install code path.
- the installer checks for a presence of specific components (Dll, etc.) and that may affect the code path as well.
- some error handling of the installer app may affect its code routes. (keep in mind that it may have happened that your XPe
image doesn't have all the components required by the installer)
- etc.

Too look more carefully at he problem you'd probably need to send out a bit more info (e.g., be specific about what you're trying to
install, FileMon logs, etc.)

Hi,
The driver application run on XPe OS seems to be running differently. I
mean, different files are being accessed when the same executable is run from
XP prof and XPe (learnt using FileMon tool). The different behaviour starts
after half the similer process.

Can some one please describe what could be the reason?

Regards
