I noticed that miniTape and Medium Changer Driver samples have been removed.
Will I encounter build issues if I move legacy minitape and medium changer
driver src that was built with WDK 6000 into this enviroment?

Thanks,
Steve

they should build just fine, barring any new warnings/improvements in the
compiler

Thank you for the reply.

I tried and the builds went fine.

Also from a tape driver stand point is there any reason that I can't use the
WDK 7006 x86 XP build enviroment for x86 Win2K3, x86 Win2K8/Vista and x86
Win7? The same applies to x64 and IA64 but I would use the Win2K3 build
enviroment . I want to keep the number of the drivers to the minimum.

Thanks!
-Steve

why not use the win2k3 x86 build window if win2k3 is the earliest OS you
want to target?

if you want to target Win2k3 as the earliest OS you want to support, just
use the Win2k3 x86 build window. that will let you load on win2ks,
win2k8/vista and win7.
