<li>Make an 'OEM installation diskette' or equivalent installation source
|

directory for Bulkusb.sys by copying Bulkusb.sys and Bulkusb.inf into it.The
|
||
|
|
sample BulkUsb.Inf is in the DDK BulkUsb\Sys source directory. </li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Make sure your device has been programmed with the device VID/PID in the
|
||
|
|
Bulkusb.inf file. If not, edit the device VID, PID, and description text to
|
||
|
|
match your test board/device.</li>

<p>On Windows NT 5.0:</p>
|

|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>When you plug in the device, the "Found New Hardware Wizard" dialog box
|
||
|
|
will appear with the subheading "Install Hardware Device Drivers". Hit the
|
||
|
|
radio button labelled "Search for a suitable driver for your device
|
||
|
|
(Recommended)" and then hit the "Next" button. The following screen has you
|
||
|
|
specify your installation source floppy or directory. Do so, then hit the
|
||
|
|
"Next" button. The next screen should indicate that Windows NT is ready to
|
||
|
|
install the driver. Near the middle of the box, you should see the full
|
||
|
|
source path to BulkUsb.Inf. Hit the "Next" button. You'll briefly see a
|
||
|
|
"copying Files" message box, then once again the "Found New Hardware Wizard"
|
||
|
|
box, now displaying the subheading, "Hardware Install: The hardware
|
||
|
|
installation is complete". Hit the "Finish" button. You should now have a
|
||
|
|
copy of BulkUsb.Sys in your \System32\Drivers directory, a BulkUsb.Inf
|
||
|
|
in your \Winnt\Inf directory, and a newly-created BulkUsb.Pnf file, which is
|
||
|
|
a precompiled setup info file that NT creates. If the final "Add New
|
||
|
|
Hardware Wizard" box indicates any error, or if the OS says you must reboot
|
||
|
|
to finish installation of this device, something has gone wrong. Check your
|
||
|
|
Inf file, Install directory, or driver code, follow the instructions in the
|
||
|
|
below section on simulating a 'first-time' install, and start over.</p>

<p>On Win98: </p>
|

|
|

|
||
|
|
<p>Plug in the device. The "Add New Hardware Wizard" dialog box will appear,
|
||
|
|
indicating that "This wizard searches for new drivers for: [your
|
||
|
|
deviceName as programmed into your board's hardware]. Hit the "Next" button.
|
||
|
|
On the following screen, hit the radio button labelled "Search for the best
|
||
|
|
driver for your device (Recommended)" . Hit the "Next" button. The next
|
||
|
|
screen has you specify your installation source floppy or directory. Do so,
|

|

then hit the "Next" button. The next screen should indicate that Windows is
|

|
|
ready to install the driver. You should see the full source path to
|
||
|
|
BulkUsb.Inf under the label: "Location of Driver". Hit the "Next" button.
|
||
|
|
You will see the "Building Driver Information Database" message box, then,
|
||
|
|
if the installation and loading of the driver have succeeded, you will see
|
||
|
|
the final wizard box saying " Windows has finished installing the software
|
||
|
|
that your new hardware device requires." Hit the "Finish" button. If the
|
||

|
final "Add New Hardware Wizard" box indicates any error, or if the OS says
|

you must reboot to finish installation of this device, something has gone

Updating the Driver<br>
|
||
|
|
-------------------</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To install a new version of your driver after a successful initial
|
||
|
|
installation, simply replace the binary in \System32\Drivers. If the initial or
|
||
|
|
last installation failed for any reason, follow the below instructions on
|
||
|
|
simulating a 'first-time' install.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Simulating a 'First-time' Install <br>
|
||
|
|
-------------------------------</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If you want to test Inf file or installation program modifications, or if
|
||
|
|
your first install failed for any reason and you need to do, in effect, a new
|
||
|
|
'first-time' driver installation without reinstalling a fresh Win98 or NT5, do
|
||
|
|
the following:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li>Delete BulkUsb.inf from the \Windows\Inf or \Winnt\Inf directory. On Winnt,
|
||
|
|
also delete BulkUsb.PNF from the \Winnt\Inf directory.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Delete BulkUsb.Sys from the \System32\Drivers directory.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Using RegEdit on Win98, or RegEdt32 on NT5, purge the registry of the
|
||
|
|
following driver information:</li>
|
||
|
|
</ol>
|
||
|
|
<p><br>
|
||
|
|
For Windows 98: </p>
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>Delete the following registry key:<br>
|
||
|
|
\LocalMachine\System\Enum\USB\[the key with your device ID/PID], <br>
|
||
|
|
( in the case of our sample as published, this would be:<br>
|
||
|
|
\LocalMachine\System\Enum\USB\VID_045E&PID_930A ) </p>
|
||
|
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p><br>
|
||
|
|
For Windows NT 5.0:</p>
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>Delete the following registry key:<br>
|
||
|
|
\LocalMachine\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\[the key with your deviceId/PID]<br>
|
||
|
|
On NT5, you must restart the system before reinstalling the driver; this is
|
||
|
|
not neccesary on Win98.</p>
|
||
|
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p><br>
|
||
|
|
<br>
|
||
|
|
BulkUsb.Inf is in the Sys subdirectory.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><br>
|
||
|
|
It allows you to set registry overrides for:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li>"DebugLevel" debug verbosity level, where 0 == no debug output, 1 ==
|
||
|
|
default ,<br>
|
||
|
|
higher == more verbose. </li>
|
||
|
|
<li>"MaximumTransferSize" The 'chunk size' ( default 4k ) large IO requests
|
||
|
|
are broken up into by the driver.</li>

||
|
