We need to get information about the device and also to read properties of the device (say manufacture information, type of device, partition and file system (if storage device), etc...)

Hi,
Step 5: Instead of using pDeviceAccess->GetResult(), I had used pDeviceAccess->QueryInterface(). The interface returned is typecasted to DeviceIoControl pointer. Now I don't get E_INVALIDARG. But while issuing the IOCTL as per below, I get E_UNEXPECTED error code.
6. pDeviceControl->DeviceIoControlSync(FSCTL_GET_RETRIEVAL_POINTERS, (UCHAR *) <Pointer to Starting VCN input buffer>, sizeof(STARTING_VCN_INPUT_BUFFER), (UCHAR *) <Pointer to retrieval buffer pointer>, sizeof(retrieval buffer structure), &dwBytesReturned);
Any input would be great.

Hi,
For the above said question, I got the ppt from MSFT (refer below link) http://channel9.msdn.com/events/BUILD/BUILD2011/HW-747T
I tried implementing "CreateDeviceAccessInstance" and IDeviceIoControl API for getting the handle and accessing the device but I'm getting E_INVALIDARG for function call to GetResult(). My sequence is as follow
1. ICreateDeviceAccessAsync *pDeviceAccess
2. CreateDeviceAccessInstance (FilePath, GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE, &pDeviceAccess) - SUCCEEDS
3. pDeviceAccess->Wait(INFINITE) - SUCCEEDS
4. IDeviceIoControl *pDeviceControl
5. pDeviceAccess->GetResult(IID_IDeviceIoControl, (void **)&pDeviceControl) - Fails with E_INVALIDARG error code
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks in Advance.
