- Well, it seems SMART capabilities(if any) are hidden, which I always thought were used for warning you about eminent hard disk failure

Look at the report, not the graphics. The graphic bar you see can only show you a very small percentage of the disk space. 19% isn't bad at all.

how to read data from hard disk using int86() function??i have used the 0x13 interrupt and then passed
0x42 to a.h.ah.but m not too sure of wat m reading

Ummm, that function doesn't exist in the Win32 API. INT86 and INT86X were part of QBasic 2 and 3, many, Many, MANY years ago.
This is doable using the Win32 API CreateFile and various other functions, but without further details about what you're doing and using, it's difficult to describe.

I believe 0x26 interrupt was the old DOS absolute disk write. I believe you should look at the Digital Mars compiler, as it still supports dos_abs_disk_write() and other ancient function calls. In addition it supports COFF format and can generate a MS-DOS stub.

The problem with using the old DOS functions under WinNT kernels is that, one, DOS doesn't exist anymore (except for a compatibilty box), and two, the functions are off-limits to user mode applications.
I already told you under today's O/S, you have to use the Win32 API to do what you want.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but I'll give it a try. I've googled this without getting an answer. Does anyone know how to programatically eject a PCMCIA card (In this case a Novatel AirCard)? Does .NET have this functionality, or is there something in the win32 API?
Thanks,
Mel

I was under the impression that PCMCIA card's had a hardware only locking and ejector system? Or am I thinking of the wrong cards?
They're the ones which you have to push in to release, then the button sticks out a bit and then you have to push it back in to lock it again?

Sorry. I should have clarified what I meant by "eject". What I want to do is to "stop" the card. The equivalent of clicking on the systray icon and stopping the card for "safe" removal.

Ahhh right  uhhh I'd think theres probably an API call for that ... but unfortunatly I have no idea what it would be sorry.

I read two articles about smart card framework which was written by Oliver but It seems I can't establish a connection between my POS terminal and my PC. I pluged terminal's rs232 output and one of my USB ports. Am I doing this work completly wrong or what? Any suggestions or help will be appreciated.
Thanks a lot..

How can i identify a system uniquely using the hardware information such as Processor ID and MAC Address.
And how can I get the Processor ID.

Did you even try searching this site before asking? I know - silly question with an obvious answer...

Try this:
http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/W-P/files/fileio/article.php/c1287/[^]
When you delete a file that's locked by another process, you could corrupt the other process, but then I assume you already know that. This may or may not work, and if it trashes your system, I won't be accepting responsibility.
How did I find it? Google - again. Over 3.9 million search results returned.
I apologize ahead of time if anyone thinks this reply exhibits a bad attitude. Well, not really, but you never know what pansy-ass overly sensitive individuals might be reading this.

Hi,
I'm looking for ideas on having a single PC with 5 or more independant Display outputs, prefably able to run 3D/DirectX output on any of them.
What hardware configurations should I be looking into?
An Embedded solution would be nice, but any tips are welcome 
Thanks
Stormblade.

How hard is it to do a search? Assuming you want all of the displays to have the same capabilities, DFI makes a motherboard with three PCIx 16x slots. Then buy three identical dual-head (DVI) video cards. At that point, you have the ability to run SIX monitors.
You're not going to find a motherboard with enough embedded circuitry to run five monitors (much less, two).
Despite the fact that your laziness really pisses me off, here's a link for you:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813136037[^]
I'll leave it to you to pick a suitable video card.
