I am writing a PnP PCI device driver. I am having
hardtime unloading it without rebooting the target. I
even tried to uninstall the driver, but the system was
still running it. Can anyone show me a trick or two about
how to overcome this? It really slows down my
development as I have to wait for the target to come up
every time I make changes to my driver image.

Thanks!

Unfortunately there in no trick.

You simply must respond to all queries and deallocate all resources in your
driver.
I could give you the long "answer" but it is beyond of scope of this NG.
You should ask all questions regarding the driver development to
microsoft.public.win32.programmer.kernel and similar news groups.
Also there is explanation of this in DDK. Also there are many samples that
you can use as a template.
