Using DLL as driver

Posted: 12-30-2005, 04:50 PM
I want to create a .dll file to act as a driver for a virtual device.
Is there a way to update the Registry to tell it to use my .dll and to make
it think that my virtual devicer is a real hardware device such as a card
reader ?

nope. you need to write a driver. you need to get the DDK and start from
there.

It is depend on what type of Driver you want.
Wave driver or Printer driver or other?
