I have question
Re:I have question
The usual tools are an assembler (NASM, FASM, MASM, YASM and others with similar names) and a text editor (Notepad, Notepad2, Vi, Emacs, GEdit, anything else that'll save as plain text). Also a compiler for a high-level language you want to use (I believe there are projects using almost any language ever conceived of except maybe brainfuck, shakespeare and whitespace) if you want to use one.

"Getting Started" page, more precisely ...
That should tell you what we typically use. Virtually anything that lets you do "system programming" lets you do OSDev'ing. Now, that pretty sounds like "hey, how do you build a computer ?" - "Oh, easy: you just need a screwdriver and a soldering iron"
