starting and stopping a PCI device programmatically

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.device_driver.dev (More info?)

Hi,

I am trying to make a small lib based on the devcon sample that is supplied
with the DDK for mimicking the functionality of the device manager for
starting and stopping a device.

This works for disabling the device, but when I try to start the device
again i get device error 10. after some testing it turns out that the devcon
tool itself has the same results.

does anyone have an idea about what the cause of this could be. devcon is
made by microsoft themselves, so i should think that its device mimics the
device manager, but this does not seem to be the case.

kind regards,
Bruno.
