I agree with Andyhp. Also, try to write more proper English. What you wrote is horrible. " I ' ve just downloaded the NASM compiler but I wasn't able to install it on my sytem because I couldn't find any intall.exe file in it . I am using Windows XP Home Edition . Could anyone tell me how I install ...

i would put the userstack there the kernelstack is fixed size, every process has one, its used only to switch rpocesses, and some interrupt handling. They wont be big. You also need to be able to access any other kernel stack from process A when switching processes so you need them to be above 3GB a...

Are you going to put the kernelstack below 3GB?!??!?

Drivers would be another tutorial

if you 'move' the stack, so you just want it to be at another address (eg 0xE0000000 insetad of at 1MB), you wil need to determine top of the stack, copy all to the new address (top->current esp == to ==> 0xE0000000->(top-current esp+0xE0000000). That piece of math is calculating end of new stack us...

Are you sure the irq-code works? DO you have a working keyboard or PIT timer? About the 5" floppies, i see no reason why you would want to support it, who ever has those? Nobody. Same for 4 floppy drives, new pc's do not have ANY floppy drive, some older pc's have, maybe one or two have 2 drives, bu...

"Offset" says the value is relative.

If you have point A at 20px horizontal, and point B at 30px, then offset of B (to A) would be 10px.

Thats the general idea.

It is slow because they cannot write a graphic card driver for every existing card. So it is using the CPU to put everything on the screen with memset's and memcpy's

The Intel IA-32 Manuals describe the TSS. You probably already have those documents on your computer.

Hi Ryan, I, and Mike with me, advice you to wait with writing a GUI. A GUI is very hard to develop, and needs lots more than you have now. The tutorials do not include the best code, nor it includes a memory manager (heap). You will also need to write some multitasking first, and some driver interfa...

You can find Microsoft's FAT specification on internet, including FAT12, 16 and FAT32.
I post it with this post.

The basics are the same, different is the length of addresses. WIth the bigger addresses (24 or 28 bit, dont know anymore) we can have more clusters.
