Windows CE NDIS miniport drivers require a DllMain entry point.

To add the DllMain entry point to the NDIS miniport driver core functions

In %_WINCEROOT%\Platform\%_TGTPLAT%\Drivers\CENDISMiniport, open Mp_main.c, and at the end of the file add a DllMain entry point.

The following code example shows an NDIS miniport DLL entry point.

#ifdef UNDER_CE

//
// Standard Windows DLL entrypoint.
// Since Windows CE NDIS miniports are implemented as DLLs, a DLL entrypoint is
// needed.
//

BOOL __stdcall
DllEntry(
  HANDLE hDLL,
  DWORD dwReason,
  LPVOID lpReserved
)
{

    switch (dwReason) {
    case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH:
        DEBUGREGISTER(hDLL);
        DEBUGMSG(ZONE_INIT, (TEXT("NE2000: DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH\n")));
        DisableThreadLibraryCalls((HMODULE) hDLL);
        break;
    case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH:
        DEBUGMSG(ZONE_INIT, (TEXT("NE2000: DLL_PROCESS_DETACH\n")));
        break;
    }
    return TRUE;
}

#endif

From the IDE Build menu, choose Open Build Release Directory.
Navigate to the directory containing your Windows CE NDIS miniport driver.

Be sure your NDIS miniport driver is in %_WINCEROOT%\Platform\%_TGTPLAT%\Drivers\CENDISMiniport.
Build the Windows CE NDIS miniport driver with the Build tool.

For more information about the Build tool, see Build Tool. Microsoft recommends using the -c parameter with the Build tool to delete all object files.
