I am very confused. I went to the OSDev chat room on irc.openprojects.net, and they all told me to just make an OS in ASM. I wanted to make a GUI OS, and it seems like it will be to hard to make one in ASM. I will still learn ASM for the bootsector. But, I went to K.J.'s Bona Fide site, and I read his Q&A, and it said to do a C++/ASM Combo. So, I decided to do that. I went ahead and downloaded DJGPP and NASM. Anyone know of any good tutorials to help me get started using that combo of DJGPP and NASM? Also, is DJGPP compatible with Windows XP Home? I was reading their site, it doesn't appear to be. If its not, please refer me to a different C++ Compiler, which is compatible with WinXP Home, and a tutorial to help me get started with that new C++ Compiler and NASM. Sorry if this is too much to ask, but, I need help!!!

Yeah. DJGPP does work in windows XP. I'm using XP home and I use it to compile.
Re:Compilers
I'm finishing a tutorial(writen by me and The_Legend) on writing a baisc kernel. The kernel is written in C and ASM. I'll probably have it up on my site by Friday(hopefully Thursday).
