USB and NT 4.0: What about digi-cams?

[hajo_s 0]

Hallo!

Some notes and questions referring to USB for Windows NT:

DELL's USB-software for NT with the Inside-Outside Drivers works great with mem-sticks. Sticks don't come up with special drivers, they are plugged and recognized at once, a drive with new letter is created. The USB-Software even plays in combination with hubs, when the usbhub-driver in R62200 has been changed against a new version from Inside-Outside.

Now the problems:

The digi-cam is recognized at once plugging it into one of the four hub-ports, but ... here the log-file of UsbTray.exe for the digi-cam (it's that tiny "cult"-JamCam!)

 

VID ?????????????????? (obviously there is no vendor-Id to be found in the registry!)

and here the log for the mem-stick:

Error Msg:

 

1. Why doesn't this happen with the camera, it's a storage-device too?! Or does the USB-software "see" something different?

2. From where can I get a registry-entry for the camera's device ID? There is an INF-File and a driver supplied with the camera, unfortunately it's provided for Windows98 and ME not for NT.

3. Any chance to enter manually the specific data into the registry, above all the device-entry?

 

Any hint appreciated!

 

Bye, Hajo
