How do i install a driver that is not microsoft certified???

I try use the pnp drivers template but not sucess.
Here's what im doing
After i install the template(msi) with the unsigned drivers a popups appears asking me if i want to install the unsigned driver
If i press yes the driver is installed
Then i connect the device(hardware) and the popups comes one more time asking me if i want to install the unsigned driver

Is there any way to remove this dialog box so the driver gets installed no matter what
And also that the box does not appear then connecting the hardware

Any suggestion folks??

How do i install NOT PNP drivers?
If the hardware is usb connected then that would make it a PNP device.

Have a look at the links at PNP Device Driver.
You can use INF2CAT to create a .CAT file and you will have to sign this with either a existing certificate or create one.
Inf2Cat.exe /driver:"<Path to driver files>" /os:XP_X86 /verbose
Step-by-Step Guide to Device Driver Signing and Staging
Authenticode will work on Windows XP even it Microsoft not state this.

This should solve the issue with the hardware wizard.

Thx for all the the help AngelD, but i think i need a bit more explaining

I have used the the INF2cat to create the catalog file!! But how do i sign this
Sorry but i have never done this before

You also wrote sign this with a exsisting certificate or create a new one!!!
Since the customer is not the same company i work. What do you suggest. Is it best to create a new one or using a exsisting one.

Sorry if my question is really stupid. But im kind of new to this so ....................

If your customer has a certificate then ask them to use that or if they can create one to be used for all their device driver packages.

Required tools bellow can be found in “Microsoft Platform SDK”.
To create an authenticode certificate with MakeCert.Exe and Cert2Spc.Exe use:
1. MakeCert.Exe -r -pe <path to .cer file> -n CN=<certificate name> -sv <path to .pvk file> -len 2048
2. Choose password for the private key
3. Cert2Spc.Exe <path to .cer file> <path to .spc file>

To sign the catalog file (.cat) use:
signcode.exe -spc <path to spc file> -v <path to pvk file> -t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll <Path to catalogfile>

Im not to familar with the certificates!!

But does the certificates need to be at the customer server's????
I thought it was possible to distribute the packagee with the certificate by sms. Am i wrong here??
But the certificate must maybe be trusted by the company or......

If the cerrtificate may be trusted by the company i guess this solution to use a certificate may not be the best solution
Any other suggestion of how to do it

Thx for all the answers AngelD

It's not required, but if the customer has a certificate server and this certificate is distributed through the server to for clients you wouldn't have to "install" the certificate through your package.

Command line to add a certificate which you could use through a custom action.
CertMgr.Exe -add "Certificate.cer" -s -r localMachine ROOT

Certificate Manager Tool (Certmgr.exe)

I still have some problems to make a cer fil

First let me say that i dont excatly know what this cmd file does but this is the message i get

SBIrDA\Drivere -n CN=WWCert -sv D:\Ongoing\IRXPressUSBIrDA\Drivere\WWCert.pvk -l
en 2048
Error: WriteFile failed => 0x5 (5)
Failed

2. Im able to choose a password for the private key but the i get asked to enter the private key= then is then i get this error message.

Hope you can explain a bit more in detail

If you also have a package where you have done this i would like to see it-because i can't see how this driver is installed automaticlly when i connect the hardware(rememver the driver is not passed microsoft logo testing)
What is a pvk file by the way

FYI
Using this procedure creates a "Test Certificate" but it will work as all "certificate purposes" are used.

Thx AngelD foreverything so far......

So far i have - let me rather put it you have created the certificate
Signed it with the catalog file

If i know try to run the command

CertMgr.Exe -add "Certificate.cer" -s -r localMachine ROOT

The certificate gets added, but if i connect the printer the hardware wizard still popsup with driver not signed

Why???
Should it not work know

You havn't installed the drivers to the "%SystemRoot%\system32\DRVSTORE" yet.
Create an msi to install the driver(s) using DIFxApp merge module.

If you want to test without having a custom action to add the certificate then just run CertMgr.Exe -add "Certificate.cer" -s -r localMachine ROOT before the msi installation.

Then login with a regular user and see the drivers get installed.
Have a look at http://www.appdeploy.com/messageboards/tm.asp?m=20827 for more details.

Make sure to set the Flags column with a value of "7" in the MsiDriverPackages table for each component/driver entry in this table.

Hmmmmm

I have made a msi file where i have only included the drivers

Let my first say im using Wise

This drivers i have deployd to a catalog named c:\program files\drivers
So this drivers catalog contains a inf file and a sys file.
I might be wrong here but need i deploy the *.inf and *.sys file to the most righfull folder-etc c:\windows\inf and c:\windows\system32\drivers???

Ive also included the merge modul!!!

I used the sys file as keypath!!!

Under MsiDriverPAckage i added this one component and set the flagcolum to 7
Why 7- haven't i signed the drivers??

Then i install the certificate you made for me

The i compile and installed the package.
Under the installation the wizard pops up saying driver not signed. So i have to press yes here to continue
I guess the certificate should have solved this

Then i connect the HW and the wizard comes up and i i have to do it all over

If im following the wizard and then check device manager i see 2 driver files
1 is signed and the package sys file is NOT signed.
Shouldn't this be signed know. Thought i did this

Since the device also using a signed driver should i made the certificate with this driver also???

I desperatly need som more help here m8[:@

You missed to add the .cat file to the same folder as the .inf and .sys file.
So the files you will have to install will be: .inf, .sys and the .cat file.

The .inf file must be set as the keypath for the component holding these three files.
Add the DIFxApp.msm if not already done.

Go to the Setup Editor view and select the components tab.
You should have one component here fromout adding the files from the Installation Expert view.
Expand this component until you see the Files source tree look alike ;) (couldn't give you a better name). On the right you will see the driver "related" files.
Right-click the .inf file as set as key.

Richt-click the .inf file and select Details and go to the Driver tab.
Mark the "Use DIFxApp to....".
Un-check all of the "DIFxApp Installation Options", this will set the Flags column to 7 in the MsiDriverPackages table.
If you do not un-check "Retain better-matchine PnP function drivers." the unsigned driver already installed on the client will be used instead of this one we have signed.

A little note: after done the settings in the Driver tab and clicking OK and you suddenly want to rename the component these settings will be discarded. In this case you will need to go to the Driver tab and redo the settings again.

Hope the hero will win in the end of this story ;)

No, this is done by the DIFxApp merge module.

Ok

I have done exatly as you said!!

1. I made a msi file containing the sys,inf and the cab files at c:\program files\drivers

2.I added the DifxAPP merge module

I have one component where i put the *.inf file as key
Then right clik the inf file and marked the "Use DifxApp..." And uncked all of th other
Should this only be done for this file or the cab and the sys file also-but not the key file thing

Then i installed the certificate.
After this i installed the msi file but neighter the inf and sys file is copid to the windows folder!!!

Im doing this from home now so the hardware is plugged in, not sure if that can be problem

And by the way if we solve this im not the hero-y are:-)

Just to verify!

Look in the .inf file and find the SorceDiskFiles section.
Did you add all of these files listed in this section + the .inf and the newly created .cat (not .cab) to the msi?

The drivers (files) will be copied to it's representive folders during hardware wizard, that is when you plug in the usb hardware.
Test by not having the hardware plugged in and install the package.
When the installation has finished log in with a regular user and plugin the PDA-Scanner.
If it doesn't work have a look in the "%windir%\setupapi.log" for driver installation failure, should be located near the end of the file.

First let me say i think we are close to a solution

Then i installed the certificate and the driver-package-the new harware wizard did not pop up-yohooo
But the device got installed with wrong driver so its not working

If i check the inf-file uder
[SourceDisksFiles] ; floppy only
kcirnet.sys = 1 ; floppy only
kclk.sys = 1

Well i got the kcirnet.sys- file but the other file i dont can't find...

Then i connected the hardware it got installed but with a different driver
c:\windows\system32\drivers\irenum.sys

The driver kcirnet.sys is not copyid to c:\windows\system32\drivers

Any idea why???

The error message i get is

Maybe 1 more thing i should mention when i signed the cat file i used the signtool wiz.
Could i use this tool in a wrong way

By the way i used the *.cat file not *.cab file:-)

In wise:I should only add the DIFFxAPP.msm module right. Or is there something more i must do to make it work???

All files under the "[SourceDisksFiles]" section is required, otherwise INF2CAT will fail to create the .CAT file.
Did these kclk.sys file not exist?

As the file "kcirnet.sys" is not copied the service "KCIRNET" will not be created by AddService action in the "[KC180.Services]" section.
This will log the #E339 Add Service: Binary "C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\kcirnet.sys" for service "KCIRNET" is not present..

Have a look under the "[KC180]" section.
Remove the remark of the CopyFiles (;CopyFiles = KCIR_CopySys ;auto install) action.
The line should look like:
CopyFiles = KCIR_CopySys ;auto install

First let me say i did not see that
CopyFiles = KCIR_CopySys ; auto install was remarked

Removed the the mark
and since i dont have kcl.sys i also removed everything about this file from the inf file.

I then made a new cat file(guess i have to do it-since i have changed the inf file)
Signed the cat fil to my certificate.

Installed the certificate
Installed the msi file

Logge in as a "standard" user
Plugged in the hardware

And guess what
IT FINALLY WORKS

So now i just i need to get the certficate installed in a custom action
Do i need to make 2 msi files, one who installs the certficate ant the other installing the drivers
IF NO- where do set the install certificate action???

You don't need a second MSI to install the certificate.
Add the .cer file to your package into a shared folder (ex. WINDOWS\System32)
Add a custom action executed after InstallFiles action with the condition "Not Installed".
The ca should execute: CertMgr.Exe with the parameters: -add "[#WWCert.cer]" -s -r localMachine ROOT.

I would use a Custom Action Type 2 (EXE file stored in a Binary table stream).

I might be wrong here but need i deploy the *.inf and *.sys file to the most righfull folder-etc c:\windows\inf and c:\windows\system32\drivers???
No, this is done by the DIFxApp merge module.

To correct myself:
The DIFxApp Merge Module will add the drivers to "%WINDIR%\System32\DRVSTORE".
The Hardware Wizard till install the drivers to "%WINDIR%\inf" and "%WINDIR%\System32\drivers" if related driver files exist as there can exist just .inf files that do not require any DLL, SYS, VXD... files.

I have followed the advise in this thread. I am coming up with a problem with installing the cert. It seems that the cert custom action is running before the cert is installed to the computer. I do have the custom action after InstallFiles in the Exec. Immediate. Does anyone know why that would be? I know this must be a simple answer, but I haven't worked a lot in the msi Script part of packages that I have done in the past. Please let me know what I can do.

Thank you in advance.
John

Hi John,
I think you should sequence the cert CA as Deferred in System Context. Assuring this way the files are been really installed before the CA starts.
Hope it helps

In AngelD's response earlier, he stated the below

Richt-click the .inf file and select Details and go to the Driver tab.
Mark the "Use DIFxApp to....".
Un-check all of the "DIFxApp Installation Options", this will set the Flags column to 7 in the MsiDriverPackages table.
If you do not un-check "Retain better-matchine PnP function drivers." the unsigned driver already installed on the client will be used instead of this one we have signed.

I don't see a drivers tab in WPS 5.5. Is there suppose to be one there? Maybe that is why I am having issues with my install.

I did move the cert install to the Execute Deferred but it fails the install stating that the driver couldn't be verified. The Cert didn't get installed yet. So, it is trying to load the driver before the cert is installed. But the custom action is trying to install the cert before the files for the cert are put on the machine. I have tried to move the dll call to the msiDriverspackage in Execute immediate but then I just get an error of 2726.

I see earlier that they talked about a standard user logged in and the drivers added. I am working on a USB device that when I can get things to work (manual cert add), it will still state that a local admin has to install the device drivers.
