I'm looking for the same thing. A VxD driver (I think that's what you
want) kit for Assembly. It was avaliable back in the days of Windows
3.1 and it's SDK has that ability - it was free too. Now you ahve to
pay $1000+ for the same thing for Borland C++... So anyway, if anyone
can get the CD for VxD drivers I'll be interrested at buying it as
well (I presume).
