Please, forward this lecture to Mackie from LOUD technologies. They build awesome and durable audio gear that easily lasts half a century and then don't update their drivers. I'm watching the lecture so get a feeling about writing device drivers. One quick question if someone who worked with firewire: why some Onyx i Mixers have drivers for Windows 8.1 and some only for Windows 7? The windows 7 compatible version is older. Thanks!!!
Hi, 5 years too late, but display drivers use something called the WDDM - Windows Display driver model. It consists of a UMD and KMD and they use the WDM miniport model described at the beginning of the talk. The kernel mode API to give ownership of your Display adapter's WDM node is DxgkInitialize or DxgkInitializeDisplayOnlyDriver. If you lookup these APIs you will see all the DDI callbacks you need to implement for both your KMD and UMD drivers.
Blue screens are good... good to know!
Awesome info! Thank you for hosting this video.

I wonder if you can write complex display drivers

I wish you would provide source codes here. Thanks
He showed source code in the presentation?
