i want write a tool that set a password onto HDD with DeviceIoControl but when i try to issue the SET SECURITY PASSWORD ATA Command(0F1h) fails with ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER. see the source that i code:

Code:

proc SET_SECURITY_PASSWORD
invoke CreateFileA,PHYSICALDRIVE1,GENERIC_ALL,3,0,3,0,0
MOV [hDevice],EAX       
MOV EAX,28h
MOV [PTE.Length1],AX

MOV EAX,0Ah
MOV [PTE.TimeOutValue],EAX

MOV EAX,512
MOV [PTE.DataTransferLength],EAX

MOV EAX,SIZEOF.ATA_PASS_THRU
MOV [PTE.DATABUFFEROFFSET],EAX

MOV AL,0F1h
MOV [PTE.Ata2.Command],AL               
MOV AX,4h
MOV [PTE.AtaFlags],AX

invoke strcpy,PTE.DATABUFFEROFFSET+4, pwd

invoke DeviceIoControl,[hDevice],4D02Ch,PTE,228h,PTE,228h,NIL,0

invoke CloseHandle,[hDevice]
RET
ENDP

WHERE IS WRONG IN THIS SOURCE? WHY DEVICEIOCONTROL RETURNS ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER?

hi,

I see a possible error.

Use either invoke lstrcpy... or cinvoke strcpy...

Hope that helps.

You might need to give your code a permission. Even if you run it as admin you still need to explicitly enable some permissions each time it runs.

ATA security functions are blocked in Windows 8 and above.
