You can get the driver here:

Although its filed as a Hitachi disk driver, its really a lower filter
driver for disk.sys that masks out the removable bit. I'm having
trouble getting it to automatically work with any IDE drive. If the
drive is in the INF file, the filter driver gets hooked up. If I
explicitly change an IDE device to use the filter driver, it gets hooked
up. I'd like any IDE disk driver to automatically hook up with the
filter driver.
I've been testing with XP Pro. I have similar results with XPe, but I
want to check that my component for the driver is correct.

Hi Mark,
Is this lowerfilter of disk.sys driver?
For quick fix modify disk.inf file and add:
[disk_install.NT.HW]
AddReg=disk_install.AddReg
[disk_install.AddReg]
HKR,,"LowerFilters",0x00010000,"YourDriverServiceName"
Let me know if it works.

I'll just need to learn more about INF files. Its a lower filter
driver and only automatically binds on the devices explicitly listed
in the INF files. If I can figure out how to automatically bind it on
any IDE device. I did understand INF files at some time, but that
knowledge has been purged. Still, I'm pretty happy. I should be about
to get any CF device to boot, I think.

Hi Mark,
If it is filter driver then you can move it to be class driver,
although it might be dangerous thing to do since it will bind to all
driver instances.
EWF is one example of upper class filter driver and it bind to all
volumes.

Its not clear to me how to get the XPfildrvr1224.zip filter driver
on XpeFiles.com to be installed on any IDE CF device.
I have made it work on XP Pro. But, I need to manually install it
on each device. It would be nice if if simply worked on all IDE
devices.

Has anyone gotten the XPfildrvr1224.zip filter driver from
XpeFiles.com to work?

Hey Microsoft, its becoming increasingly hard to find CF devices
that appear as IDE fixed disks. How about fixing the IDE driver
to remove this restriction?
I know there is version of the DDK's sample IDE driver on
xpefiles.com. How robust is the sample IDE driver in the DDK?
