All files that are referenced anywhere in the .inf need to be present for the 
driver to install, even if they are not used for the given device.

I have just started working on WDM audio drivers. I am referring to the MSVAD 
sample driver which comes with the DDK.

I used the devcon utility to install this driver (on a Win7 VMWare Virtual 
Machine):

devcon install msvad.inf *MSVADSimple

Initially I got the error of missing cat file. On commenting out this 
dependancy from inf file, I get yet another error of missing vaddyn.sys file.
This sys file was not generated when I built the entire MSVAD solution.

Did you change the INF?  The INF in the sample maps the *MSVADSimple device 
identifier to vadsimpl.sys.  It does not have the name "vaddyn.sys" anywhere.  
If you changed that name in the INF, then you have to change the name of the 
binary that you build.



Additionally I would like to capture traces for audioeng.dll,audiokse.dll and 
portcl.sys. This would help me in understanding the call flow from the audio 
engine upto the sample miniport.
Which setting I need to do in order to achieve this.

I'm not convinced that such traces are available.
