Third party driver installation

[Victor Zaslavsky]

Hi folks,

I build image for the system with some out-of-the-box drivers. I've the
devices successfully detected by TAP and the drivers componentized. However
after the FBA the devices have no driver installed and I have to install the
drivers again.

What do I miss?

Thanks in advance,
Victor.

Did you re-import your PMQ file after you componentised the drivers?

Yes, I did.

For instance: my system has two graphics adapters: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2992 and
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2993. Both uses the same INF. The first one gets installed,
the secon one - doesn't.

Some more details:

Target designer shows small difference between two instances of the device:
2993 has SrcFileSize 0 and gets installed when 2992 has SrcFileSize 34856960
and does not get installed.

SLD file describes the devices as following:
<DEPENDENCY
Class="Include"
Type="AtLeastOne"
DependOnGUID="{9B63D1AD-0694-4F15-B819-50A66A0E58CF}"

Any help will be very appreciated.

Maybe these videos can help:

http://www.sjjmicro.com/Video_Driver_Component.html
http://www.sjjmicro.com/Video_INF_Import_Issues.html

The driver that has 0 files size might be an issue. Check to be sure the
repository and component ar linked in the SLD.

The video driver looks to be for an Intel video chip. You migh have to go
into Device Manager and just Update the video driver that isn't working.

Thanks Sean,

I will look into these videos.

Regarding the SrcFileSize: exactly the one with 0 (secondary) works fine.
The one with non-zero value (primary) does not get installed. However all
the files are there. It is enough to click on Update Driver in the device
manager and point it to windows\inf and other directories to get the driver
installed and working. And that is the problem.

Victor.
