    c# kernel drivers devices 2014-2-14 2:26:38
    Before I jump headlong into C#…I’ve always felt that C, or maybe C++, was best for developing drivers on Windows. I’m not keen on the idea of developing a driver on a .NET machine.But .NET seems to be the way MS is heading for applications development, and so I’m now wondering:Are people are using C# to develop drivers? Do you have to do a lot of API hooks, or does C# have the facilities to interface with the kernel without a lot of hackery? Can anyone speak to the reliability and safety of r

    May be I’m missing something (Surely I do) but I don’t understand a thing :Each brand new version of Visual Studio is shipped with a particular msvcrtxx (msvcr100.dll, msvrct.dll, …) Right. Except the fact it leads, often, to the famous “dll hell”, I still don’t understand why the “Windows Driver Kit” continues to produce binaries linked against the old MSVCRT.DLL !?

    windows opengl graphics directx drivers 2014-1-20 23:08:10
    I’ve been thinking about starting a new graphics project and I want to use Java. Java has wrappers for all of the relevant GL functionality but I wonder how many people, including casual users, actually have decent GL drivers installed. By decent, I mean somewhat stable and fairly new (GL 1.5 support would probably do although the GLSL support that comes with 2.0 would be great). I could DirectX, even with Java, but I pretty much hate it and this project is supposed to be ‘fun’. Also, I like

    Related to: When AC Power is disconnected, atibtmon.exe throws a Runtime errorI have a very similar configuration, ATI mobility Radeon HD 3670 on Dell XPS Studio 16 using Windows 7 64-bit, and have the same problem of atibtmon.exe throwing an error every time power is removed. The difference is, I do not have Catalyst Control Center installed and wish to avoid it as much as possible. It’s a memory and CPU hog, and tends to leave corrupt installations which make deinstallation or upgrading a pain

    I think the question is answered here but I’m still wondering if what is the difference between the units it is referring to.For example, a GTX 570 has 480 CUDA cores, while the ATI equivalent HD 6970 has roughly 1536 Stream processor. It’s quiet confusing how they have the same meaning yet different number but equivalent power.
