Hi Team,</div>
<div style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class="elementToProof">
I have successfully compiled and built DPDK on a Windows system and am using a custom driver in conjunction with DPDK. I am able to write to the registers, and the driver can also read from them. Additionally, I have successfully loaded the
<code>netuio</code> driver onto my network interfaces (01:00.0 and 01:00.1).</div>

However, when running the DPDK application, I encounter the following error: <b>"Invalid memory, No probed Ethernet devices."</b> The issue is detailed further in the screenshot below.<br>

Could you please assist in identifying the cause of this error and advise on potential steps to resolve it?</div>

This question is probably showing a lack of documentation.<br>
Please can we have this gap solved with a patch?<br>
