Hi,

My fba goes properly but after that the display is not looking good.
The fonts are not clear and the color is not smooth.

when I checked fba log it had 2 errors

22:01:33 PM - [FBARegQueue: DllInstall]
D:\WINDOWS\system32\eventcls.dll (Error: 0x8000ffff)
22:01:33 PM - [FBARegQueue: DllInstall] D:\WINDOWS\system32\swprv.dll
(Error: 0x8000ffff)

and later it reported
22:07:02 PM - [FBAChangeDisplaySettings] Settings: [800, 600, 32, 60]

22:07:02 PM - [FBAChangeDisplaySettings] Settings not found!

I checked in the device manager the adaptor is NOT showing VGASave.

It is showing the correct adaptor

My chipset is Intel's 815E and has on board graphics controller. The
adaptor I have componentize with driver files provided by vendor.

Also the monitor is shown as Default Monitor and not plug and play
monitor.

What is wrong?

Regards
AK

I assume you mean you made the component yourself - does it work correctly
if you leave out the component and install the driver manually?

Hi Heidi,

I recieved this driver from the manufacturer and it had only driver
files and not setup file. So I couldn't install the driver manually.

I tried some drivers from the intel site for 815E but they display
becomes totally bad if I install them manually, and I had to roll back
the driver.

AK,

You need to make your component that will copy inf, sys and dll files to their respective folders in XPe. PnP will do the rest.
Also you must include valid GART component for your MB chipset.

Slobodan

Slobodan,

I build the component and its file option shows that I need
display.inf, fs454.sys, icegd.inf, icegdisp.dll, icegmini.sys.
But when I see the driver properties after installing the image on my
box, I see only fs454.sys, icegmini.sys and icegdisp.dll and not
display.inf, icegd.inf. So how do I ensure that these two files shall
also come in the image.

My chipset is intel 815E. How do I get GART component for that and is
it required as there is no seperate AGP card is on board.

AK

Hi KM,

I went through your article which you pasted in Newsgroup long ago. I
tried all the things. Now since I do not have VGA out in my box I have
to use only composite out and I an connecting a TV monitor made ny
SONY. Is it possible that the some monitor driver is required.

AK,

If you are referring to "Driver Details" dialog of Device Manager, then you
won't see INF files listed there. Only binry files are listed.
You will need to just copy INF files to \windows\inf folder.

For the GART support on Intel platforms you will only need AGP440.SYS (and
its dependencies on machine.inf and pci.sys). So you may just add a
component like "Intel(R) 82815 Processor to AGP Controller - 1131". Or,
better, just "Intel Processor to AGP Controller".

Hi KM / Slobodan,

I checked my devices.pmq file. I do not find any Processor to AGP
Controller.

KM had replied in one of the posts in
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsxp.embedded/browse_frm/thread/56291d5c539cd97e/7f27f232678fea2d?q=GART+intel&rnum=3&hl=en#7f27f232678fea2d

So shall I still add this component?

The inf files are present in \windows\inf folder it was just hidden.

Yes. The link KM pointed you to mentions this:
"In rare cases, a monitor may require its specific component driver to be
added to the configuration instead of using the generic "Default Monitor"
component that appears to work with a vast majority of monitors. "

I have seen this with dig out and with some LCD monitors causing your
symptoms if you don't use a more specific monitor driver component.

Hi,

Probably the VGA will work fine with default monitor, but since VGA out
is not there I am not able to test that. So the output of video buffer
is fed to scan convertor chip to convert to composite signal. And after
that I take a composite out to a LCD TV. Now for this composite signal
output any TV can be connected. It could be the issue that scan
convertor is not working properly.

Hi,

I do not know about this chipset, but for 845, 865, 875, .... File one (any) of components that contain driver file "agp440.sys" is
required.
Also in versions prior to SP2. (Do not know if that is important in SP2 though) you need to include intel inf files such as 845.inf
or 865.inf, since these files are used by PnP to match MS agp440.sys driver.

You should check setupapi.log file for all unknown devices and check their VID/PID numbers against the various inf files.

Slobodan
