Failed to open Driver error

Hello,
I'm following this example
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnembedded/html/spotwincerambl.asp

I added my EXE and my DLL into NK.BIN image,
thye I added in Project.reg file

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\Sample]
"Dll" = "mydriver.Dll"
"Prefix" = "DEM"
"Index" = dword:1
"Order" = dword:0
"FriendlyName" = "Demo Driver"
"Ioctl" = dword:0

but unfortunately when I launch the Remote System Information application my
device is not shown and my EXE can't open the dll and I get back "Failed to
open Driver..." error message.

What I am missing ?
TIA

You didn't provide your bib settings.
Best guess is you made these additions but didn't do a clean re-build. so
the registry settings haven't made it up to the _FLATRELEASEDIR yet.

In fact that article is good but incomplete and not enough exhaustive and
was missing the BIB file,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnembedded/html/spotwincerambl.asp
this is my PROJECT.BIB

MODULES

MyDriver.dll $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\MyDriver.dll NK S
MyDriverTest.exe $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\MyDriverTest.exe NK S


And my PROJECT.REG

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\Sample]
"Dll" = "mydriver.Dll"
"Prefix" = "DEM"
"Index" = dword:1
"Order" = dword:0
"FriendlyName" = "Demo Driver"
"Ioctl" = dword:0


but when I launch the Remote System Information application my
device is not shown and my EXE can't open the dll and I get back "Failed to
open Driver..." error message.
And the same launching MyDriverTest.exe.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I forgot to say that I always rebuild all (like suggested in many messages
in this NG)
And that I can see and launch the new files (MyDriver.dll and
MyDriverTest.dll)
in the \Windows directory of the target system

your file attribute is S(system file) and is hiden.
you can modify the viewer option ,and you will see it.

He's saying that not all files appear in Explorer by default. Many, many of
the components of the OS are marked as System files, which are hidden by
default in Explorer. There are options to show those files which you can
set, however, causing some of the hidden files to be shown.
