Re: NDIS Driver Component File

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi Sean

Thank you for your response.

I am new to NDIS, please let me know how to check this under XP Professional.

I do not have the old KDF file windows NTe driver. In other network drivers,
we have only the sys file and inf file in the component. In my case I only
have the sys file and I do not have the inf file !

Also, I have no idea about manually creating PnP and Service Data Resource.
Can you suggest some steps to make this work ?

Pramod Korti

Make sure the driver works under XP Pro. If you have the old KDF, you can
import it into Component designer, but you will have to manually create the
PNP and Service Data resource for the driver to launch. KDF import only
extracts the file and registry information. The other network drivers in the
database can serve as a guide.

If you have an INF file for the driver, just import that one instead.

Hello All

I have a working NDIS Driver under windows NTe. I want to port the same to
XPe. I have compiled the source code under Windows XP DDK and a new NDIS
driver is available with me.

I want to make a XPe component for this and integrate this with my
database.
I do not have any inf file for the NDIS Driver.

Please let me know how to make a component for this (or) how to make a new
inf file if we have driver file for the given hardware.

Regards,
Pramod Korti
