Thank you for the excellent advice. I converted the .INF file to ASCII from UTF-8 (no error was given), re-ndiscvt'd and it works.


Very happy now!

I had a similar problem after updating from 5.3 to 5.4-PRERELEASE.
I rebuilded if_ndis, but forgot to first recreate ndis_driver_data.h.

After rebuilding ndis_driver_data.h with the right sources it worked again.

Could your sources by out of sync with the system?
