Why acpisim didn't work on xpe?

[Jeff]

I made a driver based on acpisim sample from windows xp ddk.
It works fine on xp professional. But failed on xp embedded.
I got a yellow mark and said "Windows cannot load the device
driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing.(Code 39)".
I checked the acpisim.sys was copied into .\windows\system32\drivers after
install.
Did I miss any component on xp embedded?

Jeff,

The best way to include a driver in your embedded image is to componentize
it first, import it into your database and then include it in your
configuration.

Take a look at the following article -
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/embedded/community/tips/xp/thirdparty.asp -to
verify that you componentized your driver correctly.
