Hi

I have developed NDISWAN Miniport for Windows NT 3.51 work station and it
is working successfully,

Now I am trying to get it working on the Windows 95 and I have done the
necessary changes for the setup script and put the Miniport built under NT
into Windows 95. The driver gets loaded in  to the memory but no calls been
made to it.

When the windows starts up the following error was found under control
panel/system/Device Manager. There is an exclamation point next to my
adapter name in Network Adapters. The following error found in the device
status:

Device Failure: Try changing the driver for this device. If that doesn't
work, see your hardware documentation (code 2). This does not make sense.
Also in the dialog box the Hardware version : Not available is that picked
up from the Miniport driver.

Could someone with this sort of experience e-mail me briefly how they went
about getting it working under Windows 95 OSR2. 

Thanks for you help.
Ahilan.
