Microsoft provides a wealth of information and tools for driver developers through the Windows Driver Kit (WDK) and the Windows Hardware Development Central (WHDC) Web site.

The WDK is a fully integrated driver development system for the Microsoft® Windows® family of operating systems. Use the WDK to learn about development environments, driver models, tools, and testing, and to find sample code.

The WHDC Web site provides additional conceptual information and the latest news about Windows, driver models, and tools for driver developers, in addition to resources for system and hardware designers and test engineers.

WinHEC 2007

Discover. Design. Deliver. Get on the inside track at WinHEC!

WinHEC is the best opportunity for driver developers and testers to work closely with Windows architects and developers to understand how the new driver models and tools can rapidly advance both efficiency and quality in your team’s driver development environment.

The exchange of ideas with colleagues and the chance to ask detailed questions of Microsoft experts are one of the most-valued aspects of WinHEC. WinHEC includes over 50 hours of Chalk Talk discussions to complement the Technical Breakout sessions. These discussions on best practices and technology implementation guidelines are where you can spend time with Microsoft experts to ask detailed questions and get a close look at sample code and tools.
