Windows 7 checked HAL source file
in [Win32 Kernel]
|
From: Sethu on 24 Dec 2009 13:27 I went through the following page about installing just checked build OS and HAL for Windows 7, as it stated for Vista and later http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc835892.aspx I cant find HAL SourceFileName from "%SystemRoot%\Inf\setuppapi.dev.log" file as hal.dll is not available I had halacpi.dll and halmacpi.dll file available in WDK i386 debug directory, these file names are not present on the log file(!) I just went on and used halmacpi.dll file as the HAL source file (as my target system is multiprocessor) and updated the boot entry as well, as less expected the system failed to boot and gone for a system repair I tried the other hal file also, the results are the same How to get the correct HAL source file for Windows 7?

From: Scott Noone on 27 Dec 2009 07:58 Did you also use the checked kernel? The kernel and HAL need to match, so they either need to both be free or both be checked. -scott -- Scott Noone Consulting Associate OSR Open Systems Resources, Inc. http://www.osronline.com "Sethu" <Sethu(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:3035C58A-9541-4217-9E77-45CB588DFC66(a)microsoft.com... > I went through the following page about installing just checked build OS > and > HAL for Windows 7, as it stated for Vista and later > http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc835892.aspx > > I cant find HAL SourceFileName from "%SystemRoot%\Inf\setuppapi.dev.log" > file as hal.dll is not available > > I had halacpi.dll and halmacpi.dll file available in WDK i386 debug > directory, these file names are not present on the log file(!) > > I just went on and used halmacpi.dll file as the HAL source file (as my > target system is multiprocessor) and updated the boot entry as well, as > less > expected the system failed to boot and gone for a system repair > > I tried the other hal file also, the results are the same > > How to get the correct HAL source file for Windows 7?

I checked the halmacpi.dll version (6.1.7600.16385) and original file name (same name). If halmacpi.dll is the HAL file for the multiprocessor system then why it is not logged in setuppapi.dev.log file? Yeah Scott, I used kernel and HAL files together |
