I don't have details available right now, although if you need them I can try it again. When I did the kldload the system spit out error messages about unknown symbols and then panic-ed. I did some searching of the archives and found a message describing the same symptoms, and the response posted was that it indicated that the Windows driver made API calls that were not implemented in the NDIS wrapper. This was a 64-bit Windows driver and an amd64 FreeBSD system. Similar results in both FreeBSD 7.2 and 8.0. It appears that kern/132672 is describing the same or a very similar issue. It also suggests that there is a more fundamental problem than the unrecognized symbols. I can try to reproduce the problem tonight if you want me to. Thanks, -- -- Bob Johnson
