I am having trouble loading my Kernel.

[Andrew Nielsen]

I can't seem to get my Kernel to load, it just seems to crash and reboot my computer, can someone tell me how to load my Kernel.  Like, the code for just loading and then running my Kernel, nothing else.

If you can help, I imagine that I'll have a very good operating system project going here.

Thanks!
Andy

You've not given us a lot to go on here.  Real mode, or Protected mode, boot from floppy, or harddisk etc..
I take it you are trying to write your own bootloader, and not having much success - post the code and maybe someone can help.
Alternatively, try making your kernel multi-boot compliant and using GRUB to get it going, and revisit the bootloader towards the end of your project.

Well, I've found my error...  it's mostly Windows   ::)

So, I was wondering if anyone knows of some good tools I can use for OS Programming in Windows.

I need something to copy my bootsector, and my kernel to the disk, I have partcopy, I just don't know how to use it.  Can anyone help me with that?

Thanks
