Hi,...
I was using following code to install the driver into
system32\drivers folder adn it was working OK.
<Directory Id='SystemFolder' Name='.' SourceName='.' >
<Directory Id='SystemDriversDir' Name='DRIVERS' LongName='drivers'>
<Component Id='C__Driver' Guid='GUID' >
<File Id='PCASp50_sys' Name='PCASp50.sys' Checksum='yes'
DiskId='1' KeyPath='yes'/>
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
Anyway you should not copy the sys file directly to system32\drivers
folder. You should use the inf file to install the driver correctly.
regards
Stefan
