Re: how to get the manufacturer details of windows server using SNMP Dave Kreskowiak24-Sep-13 2:37 Dave Kreskowiak 24-Sep-13 2:37  SnmpSharp.net[^] is a good SNMP library.

Re: how to get the manufacturer details of windows server using SNMP Dave Kreskowiak1-Oct-13 2:01 Dave Kreskowiak 1-Oct-13 2:01  Are you asking if you can write one .EXE that runs on both?? I have no idea if the library is going to work on both. It's apparently just supported on Windows.

Hmm...it just occurred to me, this might be the appropriate place for me to post. Thing is, I've made a USB board called PeekyPokey with an API so that you can use .NET languages such as C# for interfacing with electronics stuff like relays, RFID tag readers, tactile buttons, rotary encoders, keypads, sensors, servos and things like that. Here's the Project home page on CodePlex: http://www.peekypokey.org/ The API also comes with an extensive toolkit containing classes for the PC side of things too - like a built in webserver, gamepad drivers, virtual keys, MIDI interface, a generalized HID interface and so on - things you can use to control electronic devices. In essence, PeekyPokey has 8 general input/outputs, a virtual COM port, 3.3V/5V power supplies and kind of brings Windows PCs and electronics together in pretty much the same way IOIO does for Android. The PeekyPokey board targets programmers curious of embedded electronics programming and hardware interfacing. The whole idea is to play, explore, learn and have fun with electronics. This is just to let you guys know it's there and love to hear what you think! NOTE: I'm not selling the boards, I'm just the creator. Thanks!

Hard Drive Light Question Richard Andrew x642-Sep-13 13:34 Richard Andrew x64 2-Sep-13 13:34  Is the hard drive activity light controlled by the mainboard firmware or an OS driver? I just upgraded my desktop from Win 7 to Win 8, and now the hard drive light is stuck on. Coincidence? Or driver error with Win 8? The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer. Re: Hard Drive Light Question SoMad2-Sep-13 15:40 SoMad 2-Sep-13 15:40  As far as I know that is a direct signal straight from the hard drive itself, which is also directed to an LED when you have a drive installed in a removable tray. This might be an oversimplification since signals from multiple drives are combined and routed by the controller to the motherboard pin. As suggested in the link below, the constant-on light could be caused by Windows doing indexing on your existing data. Or scroll down to the last post and see how "midnight_matt" solved his 'problem'. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/275475-32-constant-disk-activity-computer[^] [EDIT] So, if you follow midnight_matt's lead, you can argue it is a driver issue of sorts, caused by the Intel Rapid Storage Technology thing that for some reason is polling the CD/DVD drive constantly.

Re: Hard Drive Light Question Albert Holguin8-Oct-13 7:48 Albert Holguin 8-Oct-13 7:48  Pretty sure the light comes from the drive itself... the cause though... is likely a driver gone mad. Re: Hard Drive Light Question Richard Andrew x648-Oct-13 7:55 Richard Andrew x64 8-Oct-13 7:55  I'm pretty sure the issue was coming from Win 8. Here's how I know: I discovered that Win 8 was not seeing my DVD drive. So I found a fix for that on MSDN that involved adding a registry key and rebooting. Voila! Not only did Win 8 start seeing my DVD drive, but the hard drive light was back to normal! The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer. Re: Hard Drive Light Question Albert Holguin8-Oct-13 7:59 Albert Holguin 8-Oct-13 7:59  By the way, how do you like working in Win8? ...I've been avoiding it so far, Win7 does everything I need pretty well but I'm not sure if I'll have to migrate sooner or later. Re: Hard Drive Light Question Richard Andrew x648-Oct-13 8:04 Richard Andrew x64 8-Oct-13 8:04  Actually I quite enjoy it. I installed Classic Shell and that does an adequate job of providing a start menu, and it also makes the machine switch right to the desktop after booting. Win 8 is snappier than 7 and I really like the new Task Manager. Overall, as long as you stay in the desktop, it's just an improved Weven. The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer. Re: Hard Drive Light Question Albert Holguin8-Oct-13 8:09 Albert Holguin 8-Oct-13 8:09  I've heard the "snappier" from other people as well... but I guess I'll make the change when I have to. I mostly develop for govt customers and it takes them forever to change as well so I usually want to work in whatever environment most of them are on. Re: Hard Drive Light Question Richard Andrew x648-Oct-13 8:17 Richard Andrew x64 8-Oct-13 8:17  Oh, I know how it is. I created a system for hospitals, and they move slowly as well. This one hospital in NJ has just now begun to adopt 7! 'Til just a couple months ago, they were still on XP. The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer. Re: Hard Drive Light Question Albert Holguin8-Oct-13 9:07 Albert Holguin 8-Oct-13 9:07  yeah, my customers are just adopting Win7 as well...

RtlQueryRegistryValues read REG_DWORD johnye2e_18-Aug-13 4:41 johnye2e_ 18-Aug-13 4:41  I'm writing a Uart16550 driver, and one of the things I have to do is read from the registry some initialization parameters using RtlQueryRegistryValues. (a lot of code skipped...) RTL_QUERY_REGISTRY_TABLE table[2]; and table[1].QueryRoutine = NULL; table[1].Name = NULL; The parameter is stored in the registry as a REG_DWORD and I'm trying to set my table with: unsigned long buffer; (because DWORD is not defined in ntddk.h and I'm not sure if I break anything including WinDef.h) and table[0].EntryContext = &buffer; The status of the call to RtlQueryRegistryValues is STATUS_SUCCESS status = RtlQueryRegistryValues( RTL_REGISTRY_ABSOLUTE, path, table, NULL, NULL); but when I try to DbgPrint("registry: %lu", buffer) I get way too big numbers (I expected the result to be 1 or 2). Am I doing something wrong with the DbgPrint, or my parameters aren't set correctly for the query table? And where is the RED_DWORD data type defined?

Also where is your dbgprint(), is it in the call back funtion? dbgprint is lke printf, so use the same formatting.
