It looks like the registry entry for dipswitch.dll have no 'Prefix' value
and/or you are not exporting all the required stream interface driver entry
points: post your .reg and .def files for dipswitch

I think you should take a look to the docs for 'stream interface drivers':
you must use a 'three letters' string for "Prefix" in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\DIPSWITCH]
If you set, for example, "Prefix"="DIP" then you must export DIP_Init,
DIP_Deinit, etc

You can't call it DIPSWITCH_xxx. It has to be exactly three letters, no
more and no less. Change DIPSWITCH to DIP in all locations and see if it
solves your problem.
