The best-selling first edition of The Undocumented PC revealed hidden programming features of PC hardware that allowed programmers to solve tricky problems and dramatically speed up the execution time of their programs. Thoroughly revised and updated, this new edition contains even more undocumented and hard-to-find information.

 | Writing Windows VXDS & Device Drivers by Karen Hazzah
This book shows the full range of alternatives for interfacing Windows applications to hardware, from the simplest DLL (Dynamic Link Library) or TSR (terminate and stay resident) DOS programs to complex Virtual Device Drivers (VxDs). This book shows how to write a VxD without burying the reader in Windows trivia and API references. The author explains what is really important about VxDs, what you really need to know to make practical use of these powerful operating system extensions. She provides the necessary details and explains the tradeoffs involved: from writing a basic polled-mode driver--the easiest method for interfacing a Windows application to a hardware device, to writing an interrupt-driven driver for better performance and throughput, or writing a full blown VxD--the high powered solution that also provides an interface for both Windows and DOS applications.
