Seeking advice on Devices Drivers that refuse to be componetized

[black_13]

What do you do when you have followed the steps laid down in Limings
book or Microsofts website on
componetizing a driver and It just doesnt work correctly? Are there
work around to geting a device to
install?

Can you be a little more specific? What device are you running into?

I know the serial touchscreen drivers are problemantic when it comes to
components. In these cases, I just create a component with the installer
files to be installed during or post-FBA.

sure yes sorry about that.

I am trying to component-ize the sigmatel drivers for
an Intel DG965SS. What i have seen done for this
to use batch script that uses devcon.
thanks

Sigmatel - audio driver?

Sorry yes the Sigmatel Audio driver:
Audio: Sigmatel 92XX (11589KB) 5.10.5258 4/5/2007
Is it legal to post a complete INF file?

The driver download can be found at Intel's website

Thanks again,

I eventually found the solution for this it problem
create a componenet that contains all the files for the sigmatell
drivers
then create a resource that has an FBA Generic Command
that command runs

has the following:
Arguments /c %24%\temp\sigmatel\install.bat
FilePath %11%\cmd.exe
Phase 18000
Reboot TRUE

the install.bat file is pretty simple:
cd \temp\sigmatel_devcon
devcon -r install STHDA.INF "HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_8384"

another component process comes in and cleans up the \temp directory
later.

it aint pretty but it works.
