need help new windows driver developer

[newbieuser]

Hi,

I am a new windows driver developer ( never really worked in this area) but

anyhow, I have thie driver that gets timed out in an internal command (not os generated) that the driver

sends trying to find a device and I am using a timer using scsiportnotiication(requesttimerCall) to call my timer routine. HwScsiTimer

I see the

system even for my driver name *.sys having an event 9 but I want to stop the event 9 from being displayed in the

windows system event screen. I searched the code and trying to find out where we are posting to the OS to cause the display. Does anyone know what mechanism should I search for that the OS knows that there was a timeout occurred?

is it the scsiportnofication to call my timer routine? does the os keep a tally of how many times it called my timer rouitne after all, this is an internal routine, not os generated.

thank you in advance.
