Basically, you use the SetupDi APIs (like SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo) to scan
through all of the devices in whatever KSCATEGORY your driver exposes,
until you find your own, usually by looking for the device's "friendly
name". That gives you the official file name, which you can then pass
to CreateFile to get the device handle.
There are lots of examples of this process. Many of the DirectShow
sample apps use this technique to find capture drivers. The AC97
control panel sample in the DDK (src\audio\ac97\cpl) also uses it to
search for a topology driver.
