Hello all,

I am having a problem with getting a memory map, i've been reading as much on it as I can to try and fix the bug but can't manage to. Admittedly I am a beginner at operating systems development so it's probably something stupid. But some tips on what I could be doing wrong would be helpful.

This is the output of the memory map is in the attachment, any tips on what the problem could be would be very helpful.

Thanks,
GNH

Your probably doing nothing wrong in reading the map as 9 entries or thereabouts is very common. Your probably using VS and when a region of memory has been de-allocated it is filled with "0d f0 ad ba", a pun on bad food, meaning that region is no longer valid. My guess would be the buffer your reading the map into doesn't have global scope.
