hi Im working on something very similar at the moment i need to install (and uninstall) my NDIS IM Driver i'm creating a win32 application which i will pass parameters to for install, uninstall or repair. i am using a DDK interface INetCfg. to do all this via code. i was just going to use an INF file but i never got to the stage of testing it with you the VS installer project. There is a Driver Install Framework you maybe able to use at Microsoft: Driver Installation[^] sorry i cant help more at the moment its still a new area for me as well. I assume, in the setup project, you import the .inf and cat files then set some property on the inf file or the .sys file :doh: well hope thats a least a bit of help

thanks!

Thanks!

If you have the DX SDK, you have samples that do this, and if you don't, you can't use DX yet anyhow. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

Is it for a game or application? When testing for a game, check which configuration is needed to play the game at minimum resolution (800 x 600 or something like that) at least at 25 fps. See how much memory (ram) your application is using. If it is more than 16, users should have at least 32 (because other applications are using ram too).

IMO I think that the easiest way to do it is to implement the Windows Media Player Control in your solution. Have a look here[^]. Regards, Polis Can you practice what you teach?

the overloaded BinaryWriter.Write() method does not support anything smaller than a byte, which is the smallest natural unit. Note that the bool type is not a bit long. You can try using a BitArray, but i'm not sure this will help, and it's not very efficient. there are no facts, only interpretations

yes, thanks

Doesn't it seem like this will be the order of events? * (Your code) Create graphics object * (Your code) Draw on pane * (Your code) Refresh pane * (WinForm code) Clear background (thus removing your previous drawing) * (WinForm code) redraw pane It might be that your drawing is getting painted over when you refresh your pane. You can create a delegate and add it to the pane.Paint event, then draw using the supplied graphics object. - Drew
