When you connect a block device to a Windows Embedded CE-based device, the Device Manager calls the driver's detection function. The registry keys for your driver specify the detection function.

The detection function attempts to recognize the type of block device hardware that is present by querying the device. If the driver recognizes the device, the Device Manager loads the block device driver into memory.

This detection and load process is standard procedure for PC Card devices only.

For more information about the Device Manager, see Device Manager.
