+Compiling the NetUIO Driver from Source
+=======================================
+
+Operating System
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The NetUIO source has been validated against the following operating systems:
+
+* Windows Server 2016
+* Windows Server 2019
+
+Hardware Requirements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The NetUIO driver has been validated using the following network adapters on 
the Windows platform:
+
+*
+*
+
+Software Requirements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 or Visual Stuido Studio 2019 Enterprise 
from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/ 
+       * During installation ensure following components are selected:
+               Windows 10 SDK (10.0.15063.0) 
+               Windows 10 SDK (10.0.17763.0)
+               Windows Drivers Kit
+               
+* Install WDK for Windows 10 (10.0.17763.1) from 
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/download-the-wdk 
+
+Building the NetUIO Driver
+--------------------------
+Follow the steps below to build the NetUIO driver and install the driver for 
the network adapter. 
+
+* Clone the dpdk-kmods repository: git clone git://dpdk.org/dpdk-kmods
+* Navigate to \dpdk-kmods\windows\netuio\mk\exec-env\windows\netuio
+* Load netuio.sln in Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 or 2019
+* Choose Release as the configuration mode and Build the solution
+* The resultant output files can be found in 
\dpdk-kmods\windows\netuio\x64\Release\netuio
+ 
+Installing netuio.sys Driver for development
+--------------------------------------------
+NOTE: In a development environment, NetUIO driver can be loaded by enabling 
test-signing. 
+Please implement adequate precautionary measures before installing a 
test-signed driver, replacing a signed-driver.
+
+To ensure test-signed kernel-mode drivers can load on Windows, enable 
test-signing, using the following BCDEdit command.
+
+C:\windows\system32>Bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON
+
+Windows displays the text “Test Mode” to remind users the system has 
test-signing enabled. 
+Refer to the MSDN documentation on how to Test-Sign a Driver Package.
+ 
+To procure a WHQL signed NetUIO driver for Windows, please reach out to 
dpdk...@microsoft.com
+
+* Go to Device Manager -> Network Adapters.
+* Right Click on target network adapter -> Select Update Driver.
+* Select “Browse my computer for driver software”.
+* In the resultant Window, select “Let me pick from a list of available 
drivers on my computer”.
+* Select “DPDK netUIO for Network Adapter” from the list of drivers.
+* The NetUIO.sys driver is successfully installed.
