FYI:
I discovered that if you install Visual Studio 2005's Service Pack 1, it will damage the Premise Device Wizard.
The HDSK provides several resources for a driver developer, including two wizards for Visual Studio 2005:
Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\VCWizards\Premise\PremiseDeviceWizard\templates\1033\sysdev.h
I don't know enough about creating Visual Studio Wizards to debug the problem. I uninstalled "Premise C++ Driver Wizards for Visual Studio 2005" and " Visual Studio 2005" (with SP1), re-installed everything minus SP1, and that restored the functionality of the Device Wizard.
There's probably a way to fix the template file so it can work with SP1, maybe even a way of making the Wizard files work with Visual Studio 2008 ... but that's for another interpid soul. I already feel like the last guy on the planet using the HDSK. When your Google searches come up empty-handed, you know you're poking at the fringes of shared knowledge.

- one builds the Premise Driver project
- another adds Device classes
