We have a product that includes a service, utility files, and a filter driver
that runs exclusively on Vista. We have been installing it in a MSI package
using the DIFx 2.01 mechanism to install the driver. We wish to have a
combined 32-64 bit package. Since I can not use the same MSI mechanism for
both 32 and 64 bit drivers, I am trying to use code from the WDK (6001.18000)
to determine the platform type and launch the proper DPInst.exe to install
the driver. The code is to be put in a DLL and run deferred, in system
context. My problem is that while I can load the driver manually or
individually with the MSI, I can not get DPInst to either install or
uninstall the driver from the command line. I use the command line options /S
/F /SA /SE /C /D. The output is:

INFO: Option set: dumping log info to console.

The driver is still in development and will be WHQL certified for release,
but is not at this time.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Hugh
