Hi all,
I would like to know whether ndis 51 miniport driver will run on
windows 7.
(just running, no performance) . I have built my NDIS 51 miniport with
WDK - 7600 , windows 7
build envirnment. In driverEntry I am getting "NdisMregisterminiport"
returns failure. (return value -1073676283) . So the driver wont
even load.

Do I need to port my driver to 6.0 or 6.2 to make it work on windows
7 ?

Regards,
Subhash

For certain link speeds you will not be able to WHQL certify an Ndis 5 driver
and will need a 6.x one, but as far as loading and working, Ndis 5.x driver
shoudl be OK on Win7. At least that's what the logo reqs say and what my
experience has been with a couple of USB ethernet devices.

-1073676283 = 0xC0010005L which is NDIS_STATUS_BAD_CHARACTERISTICS, so you
probably made a mistake filling up the characteristics structure. Have you
tried that same same driver under Xp (where Ndis 6 does not exist) to make
sure you got it right ?
