Getting Started with VC++ 2008 Kernel and OS Development

Post by easytec »

For some months now I have been developing applications in VC++ 2008 Win32, and emu8086 ASM. So far, I have learnt a lot about VC++ 2008 logic in Win32 and ASM logic in emu8086 and Virtual PC (using ISO not floppy).
I'm ready to take a big step forward and connect my skills together.
The thing is I don't know where to start, I've tried using this site's Visual Studio wiki article to set up the project, but it looks like it all fails with the odd errors I do not understand very well because I did not attach the MSVC Debugger, Compiler, nor Linker.
So I'm wondering if someone could point me in the right direction.
I'm not familiar with this, and I cannot afford courses.
I'd be happy to learn if I know its possible, which means I need a working order of project, otherwise I'm wasting precious time fiddling with an IDE.
I only like the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and up IDEs, so don't direct my to another IDE, Linux and its GTK+ GUIs is vile.
Thanks.

Hi,

I think this will help.
The man who follows the crowd will usually get no further than the crowd.
The man who walks alone is likely to find himself in places
no one has ever been before.
