download.gif (1234 bytes) 20K extensions.h. Includes some bug fixes for this file that came with Win32 Programming. These fix a couple missing-parentheses errors and include conditional compilation that now supports Visual C++ 5.0.

download.gif (1234 bytes) 37K GetDriveType Explorer. The GetDriveType API call is poorly-documented, behaves differently on Windows 95 and Windows NT, and doesn't quite return what you expect. This Explorer shows the raw results and provides a function that normalizes the behavior between operating systems as well as providing "expected" behavior. Includes complete source.

This sequences through each NTSTATUS code defined in the NT header file and determines which GetLastError code each NTSTATUS code evokes. Includes complete source. It consists of an application program, NTSTATUSExplorer, and a driver, StatusReturn, and will unzip to two different directories.See readme.txt for operating instructions. undercon.gif (293 bytes)

download.gif (1234 bytes) 961K Hardware Simulator: The hardware simulator described in the book. (Note: The automatic mode is currently disabled). Complete source and binary for both the simulator and its associated driver, and complete online help. undercon.gif (293 bytes)

Developing Windows NT Device Drivers. Download the individual files above: I/O Explorer, PCI Explorer, NTSTATUS Explorer, DBLQ, DBLQ2, and Hardware Simulator (I'm limited in file space by my ISP, so can't do a massive single file and also the individual downloads). undercon.gif (293 bytes)

download.gif (1234 bytes) link PKZIP. All of the above files are in .zip compressed format. To decompress them, you must have a version of PKZIP from PKWARE. You can download a shareware version of this program from their Web site, which is where the link to the left takes you.
pkware.gif (12081 bytes) PKZIP Registered Version. The folks at PKWARE have made a significant contribution to the state-of-the-art for all of us by their shareware distribution of PKZIP. Show them that you appreciate them: order the registered version. Besides a lot of neat features you don't get with the shareware version, it shows that you support their efforts to make life easier for all of us by making PKZIP widely available. If you can afford a registered version, buy one.
