Hi,

I have written a virtual COM driver for Bluooth stack (USB) for windows XP
VCOM is implemented as a device Upper filter driver to USB BT stack.

-> When I install BT driver, it is showing lower driver as \Driver\ACPI (which is correct)
-> After this, I install VCOM driver.
During the VCOM installation, first it is unloading the BTstok driver and loading again.
For VCOM driver, it is showing lower driver as \Driver\BTstack but for BTstack, it shows
Lower driver as \Driver\PNP Driver instead of \Driver\ACPI.

My question is why it is showing lower driver as Driver\PNP driver?

Is it the issue of INF file?

Seperate INF files are written for BTStack and VCOM driver.
