#2752 - RE: Device driver programming
> can i use VXD in windows 95 using Visual

Look at its online help. I think it would be hard.

I saw once a shareware VxD compiler but it did only generate makefiles and/or assembler source. To assemble and link a driver, MASM and special version of linker, ML, are still required. So it would be worthier (although more time-consuming) to write the driver in assembly.

May be you could find both programs and required include files at some underground netsite :)

Probably only M$ knows if VxDs are backward compatible. But I know surely that NT drivers are NOT compatible with VxDs, and that Win2000 is actually NT 5.0. Hey guys, maybe someone from you does know the details?
