Hi All,
I have written an intermediate driver based on passthru sample. My
driver works fine with WLAN card and Gigabit LAN card of intel . But it
crashes, when i use it on BroadCom Nextreme Gigabit ethernet card. The
operating system is windows xp with SP2 and version of the driver is 7.80.0.0
date:06/19/04. Is there anything i need to put it in .inf or in intermediate
driver to make it work with Broadcom's hardware?

Could anyone let me know how can i fix this bug?

Thanks,
Senthil

There is nothing that you need to put in your INF file to support this
adapter.

Most likely you need to use your debugger to identify and fix a problem in
your NDIS IM driver.

Sometimes different adapters behave a little differently and expose protions
of your code or timing/synchronization issues that are different.

You should also take a close look at the NDIS task offload features. Compare
the features that are supported for the two Ethernet NICs. If there are
differences, then that is one area to look at carefully.

Good luck,

Hi Calvin,
I installed the intermediate driver using netcfg.

Here is the output of -analyze -v

I uninstalled the driver and installed it manullay it is working fine now.

Does it mean that the problem is with netcfg? I had some issue with netcfg
then i copied netsf_m.inf to inf directory before calling netcfg. After which
netcfg installed the driver sucessfully.That is the only change i did.
I am using the same installation kit with the above change to install the
driver.It is working fine with intel's LAN and wireless LAN. when i
installed it on BroadCom's LAN card,it was crashing. But the same driver is
working fine if i install it manually.
Kindly advice me how to proceed in this matter.

Thanks,
Senthil
