Problem in Device Path Exerciser Test.

[Rizvi]

Hi,

I'm testing a monitor WDM driver which accesses I2C
interface using HCT 11.2
This driver gets listed under Monitor category.
One of the tests under this category is "Device Path
Exerciser".
Whenever I start this test, the system reboots and shows
a screen saying that "Start Windows Nornally. Start
windows in Last Good known Configuration and so on".
Unless n until I dont choose 'Last Good known
Configuration' the System reboots continuously.
I also got and error saying that the "The Hash value for
the file xyz.sys has changed".

Please help me out why the system is rebooting
continuously or suggest any other way to perform this
test.

Does it reboot because of a crash? Is automatic restart enabled?

Device Path Exerciser turns on Driver Verifier. Hook up a kernel debugger to
the machine and catch the exception to find out the problem.

I have enabled the automatic logon.
Prior to HCT testing, I have tested the driver using
Driver Verifier.
For only Enhanced I/O verification option, the Driver
fails and a blue screen is shown..Dump.The System also
crashes.
Can i know which options does Device path Excersier
enables while Testing through HCT?.

I did enable automatic restart.
