I am trying to determine if I have enough to write a device driver for OS/2.
I have MASM 5.1 and it will assemble the sample hrtimer.asm with no problems.
Although I can find no OS/2 libraries to link it with so I get an unresolved
reference to DosWrite. I have heard that MSC 5.1 will compile OS/2 1.x code,
but my MSC is only 5.0. Do I need to get at least 5.1 to make this work? Or
will I need to get the Toolkit. (I will be getting that pretty soon, but I
am impatient.)

Thanks for the help.

Keith
