How To Install Portio Drivers
I am currently trying to build an application, that will talk to the super IO chip using port IO. As part of that, I am trying to develop a kernel-mode windows driver that I can contact, and which will do the IO for me.
I have therefore downloaded the Windows Driver Kit v7.1.0, build 7600.16385.1, and I am trying to compile and install the sample driver, which is provided by WDK, since it seems to be quite close to what I need. I have compiled the driver in both free and checked x86 XP build environments.
Clicking on the Download Now (Visit Site) button above will open a connection to a third-party site. Download.com cannot completely ensure the security of the software hosted on third-party sites. # re: Installing drivers using DPInst The Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK) Version 7.1.0 is an update of the WDK 7.0.0 release and contains a set of tools, code samples, documentation, compilers, headers, and libraries that driver developers can use to create drivers for Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows.
This works fine, but when I try to install the resulting driver, using the provided instructions - which basically just amount to using the Add Hardware Wizard, and then supplying the files manually - I get the following error: -The following hardware was installed: Sample PortIO Driver (KMDF) -The software for this device is now installed, but may not work correctly -Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) So, I see two explanations: corrupted or missing. Missing, as far as I can, given my environment variables and.inf file, would mean that the generated.sys file is not in c: windows system32 drivers, but when I look there, the file is there.

So that would mean that the file is corrupted. Given that I haven't touched the driver code, and that I have found others with the same problem, it doesn't seem to be a problem with my compilation, but rather with the code itself, or some common combination of machine type and code. But I may be wrong.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how to solve this?
