Hello!
Where can i find the spcification (I/O-ports etc.) for the emulated hardware in VMware Workstation 5.0?? The user-manual doesn't contain any valuable information... I need this to make drivers for my OS that works on VMware's "hardware".
"Hardware"-specification for VMware?
Re:"Hardware"-specification for VMware?
The Virtual Machine Specifications are at VMWare's specifications, which also mentions which chips are emulated - does that help you?
Every good solution is obvious once you've found it.

In addition to the link provided by Solar, this link VMWare Knowledge base URL takes you to VMWare's KnowledgeBase.

No actually i more wanted this kind of documentation that I use now for my PIC/ATA/etc. drivers.

This is for the Host-to-PCI and PCI-to-ISA chips in my 440BX chipset. Now I want something similar for the emulated hardware in VMware (or is VMware emulating an existing Intel-chipset so I can use Intel-documentation?)
If this information not is available for VMware, which other processor emulators have this information available?
Cheers

Sorry, I changed my mind, it helped me VERY much, thank you! I now see that it emulates the 440BX chipset, I didn't see this at first.
Cheers!!!
