Up to now, Bart's PeBuilder is not able to use hex(a) and hex(8) Registry entries.
This small HowTo should help you to get these entries to work nevertheless.
Step 1: Make a reg file
- export all the registry entries that your driver needs
- combine these reg files into one file (example: "big.reg")
Step 2: Remove all hex(8) and hex(a) entries
Remove all hex(a) and hex(8) registry entries from the reg file generated in Step 1 ("big.reg").
Do this by moving (Ctrl-x) these entries to a new .reg file (example: "small_hex_special.reg").
Don't forget that the first two lines of this new reg file have to be:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
Step 3: Convert the .reg file to an.inf file
Convert the remaining reg file ("big.reg") to an inf file ("big.inf").
For this task, there are several tools available.
For example: paraglider's ConvRegToInf
Step 4: Add the normal registry entries
Copy the lines from the .inf file generated in Step 3 to the .inf file of your plugin.
Example: Copy the content of "big.inf" into "your_plugin.inf".
A tutorial about HowTo write an inf file for your plugin can be found here. author: Wolfgang Brinkmann
Step 5: Add the special registry entries
Rename the .reg file generated in Step 4 to the name of your plugin, with extension "reg".
Example: Rename "small_hex_special.reg" to "your_plugin.reg"
Then add something like the following lines to the .inf file of your plugin ("your_plugin.inf"):
[WinntDirectories]
a="ADD_REG",2
[SourceDisksFiles]
your_plugin.reg=a,,1
That's it...
If you have questions, please ask them at the forum or PM me there !
Have fun :)

P.S.
Be careful with Step 5: If you have already a section called [WinntDirectories], then perhaps you have to choose a different letter for your directory then 'a' .
Like:
[WinntDirectories]
a="bla_bla1",2
b="bla_bla2",2
c="ADD_REG",2
[SourceDisksFiles]
your_plugin.reg=c,,1
