Comments
The DRV_DISABLE message is one of the standard driver messages. A client sends the message by calling the driver’s DriverProc entry point, passing the specified parameter values.
Windows 95 drivers respond to the DRV_DISABLE message by disabling hardware. Because hardware access under Windows NT is controlled by kernel-mode drivers, Windows NT user-mode drivers do not perform any operations when they receive a DRV_DISABLE message.
