I believe 0x26 interrupt was the old DOS absolute disk write. I believe you should look at the Digital Mars compiler, as it still supports dos_abs_disk_write() and other ancient function calls. In addition it supports COFF format and can generate a MS-DOS stub.

The problem with using the old DOS functions under WinNT kernels is that, one, DOS doesn't exist anymore (except for a compatibilty box), and two, the functions are off-limits to user mode applications.
I already told you under today's O/S, you have to use the Win32 API to do what you want.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but I'll give it a try. I've googled this without getting an answer. Does anyone know how to programatically eject a PCMCIA card (In this case a Novatel AirCard)? Does .NET have this functionality, or is there something in the win32 API?
Thanks,
Mel

I was under the impression that PCMCIA card's had a hardware only locking and ejector system? Or am I thinking of the wrong cards?
They're the ones which you have to push in to release, then the button sticks out a bit and then you have to push it back in to lock it again?

Sorry. I should have clarified what I meant by "eject". What I want to do is to "stop" the card. The equivalent of clicking on the systray icon and stopping the card for "safe" removal.

Ahhh right uhhh I'd think theres probably an API call for that ... but unfortunatly I have no idea what it would be sorry.

Hello everyone..
I am trying to use a POS terminal as a smart card reader. I read two articles about smart card framework which was written by Oliver but It seems I can't establish a connection between my POS terminal and my PC. I pluged terminal's rs232 output and one of my USB ports. Am I doing this work completly wrong or what? Any suggestions or help will be appreciated.
Thanks a lot..

How can i identify a system uniquely using the hardware information such as Processor ID and MAC Address.
And how can I get the Processor ID.

Did you even try searching this site before asking? I know - silly question with an obvious answer...

Try this:
http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/W-P/files/fileio/article.php/c1287/[^]
When you delete a file that's locked by another process, you could corrupt the other process, but then I assume you already know that. This may or may not work, and if it trashes your system, I won't be accepting responsibility.
How did I find it? Google - again. Over 3.9 million search results returned.
I apologize ahead of time if anyone thinks this reply exhibits a bad attitude. Well, not really, but you never know what pansy-ass overly sensitive individuals might be reading this.

Hi,
I'm looking for ideas on having a single PC with 5 or more independant Display outputs, prefably able to run 3D/DirectX output on any of them.
What hardware configurations should I be looking into?
An Embedded solution would be nice, but any tips are welcome
Thanks
Stormblade.

How hard is it to do a search? Assuming you want all of the displays to have the same capabilities, DFI makes a motherboard with three PCIx 16x slots. Then buy three identical dual-head (DVI) video cards. At that point, you have the ability to run SIX monitors.
You're not going to find a motherboard with enough embedded circuitry to run five monitors (much less, two).
Despite the fact that your laziness really pisses me off, here's a link for you:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813136037[^]
I'll leave it to you to pick a suitable video card.

I'm not sure who stuck a stick up your rear end today, but I hope the pain eases soon (or whatever it was that made you decide to reply so venomously to a fairly reasonable request for ideas).
Yes the multiple PCIx slot option is out there, I was wondering if there were any other solutions.
I know that at least one regular here works with building multiple display systems a lot, and had hoped he would have some advice.
As for embedded solutions, there are a number of Embedded boards that support 2 independant displays, one of which we are already using.

The problem is that so many people posting on here are lazy and just expect others to do the research for them.
In future it'd be a good idea to indicate in your post that you have already done some research and the result of the research. THen indicate your asking for people personal experience and opinions to build o nthat.

Perhaps, doesn't excuse his attitude tho...
It could put people off from coming to these forums... something I don't think the forum owners would want.
As it happens I am aware that he is generally a miserable git, and attacks without cause on a regular basis, an attitude not really deserving of MVP status.

Waaaah! Stop whining... It sounds like you're making a pathetic attempt at justifying your own poor attitude.

Not at all - it hasn't kept over 4.7 million people from joining.
If you had actually done some research, you would already know that there's no such thing as a motherboard with three graphics chip sets built in, much less providing 6 dvi connectors), and anyone that hasn't been living under a rock for the last five years knows PCIx is probably the best way to go. Further, anyone (even you) can type a simple phrase like "three PCIx slots" into the google search field and click "go" (there are probably more motherboards available that provide 3 PCIx slots, but I stopped at the first one I found). Failing that, NewEgg is always a good place to start when looking for hardware.

That's not entirely true. These forums are rife with lazy assholes that would prefer to come in here and start asking stupid questions without doing any research on their own before hand. In your original post, you made absolutely no mention of the fact that you did any research at all before coming here. I thought were just another lazy a**hole. If you had said, "I've looked around and couldn't find a suitable reference...", my answer would have been completely different.
Instead, you came in and asked a question about information that was readily available via a google search.
So maybe *your* holier-than-though attitude needs more adjustment than mine.

THere're cards out there that will let you use a Y cable to split a dual link DVI port(2560x1600) into two separate single link ports (1920x1200max) to run 4 monitors at once from a single card. They're quadro's not consumer oriented geforce models though. I've seen them from a few vendors of large multipanel display systems.
