As far as I know, the underlying interrupts that are used are the same, it
is just a matter of the coding to access them under each platform.  The
articles I pointed out, particularly the one about exclusive locking, is an
overview of what is needed in general.  Then it is just a matter of working
out the platform specifics.  I know the operations are similar under
Win9x/Me and NT/2K/XP because my company has code that deals with locking
volumes under those platforms, and the code is not that different between
them.  Although, it does only perform logical volume locking, not physical
volume locking.
