Device driver not loaded in win 8.1

elahe_shekuhi · September 29, 2014, 3:15am

Hi,

I write a device driver named A.sys. It has dependency with a kernel dll
B.sys.
I can install A.sys in windows 7 successfully, but when I install A.sys in
Win 8.1, error code 39 shows in device manager . It says “Device driver
couldn’t loaded properly”. I don’t know what the problem is.

In both win 7 and win 8.1 I copy B.sys in %SystemRoot%System32/drivers.

I would be very appreciated if someone help me.

Are you using KMDF?

Could you please post the INF?

Just a guess, but I would say that there’s more likely something amiss in your INF than the export driver being the problem.

I think .inf file is correct. If I install a version of A.sys that hasn’t
dependency with B.sys it is installed correctly. But that version of A.sys
that has dependency with B.sys installed with error code 39 only in win 8.1.

You might try turning on gflags loader snaps, which will cause a bunch of kernel debugger messages about how module references are (or are not) getting resolved.

Standard Answer to “My Driver Doesn’t Load, What Do I Do Now”:

Do you have a debugger attached? Does DriverEntry get called? If so, does DriverEntry return STATUS_SUCCESS. Same question for AddDevice.

Did you check the \windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log file to see if it will shed some light on the problem?
