tudo bem?

What do you mean by Console?
A Console application? or a Console (Shell?) for an OS?

You need to tell us more information.

DarylD: The education starts here. ;)

No what your making in visual basic is a shell what u want your OS to look like. Trust me there is far more to an OS then that and doing these things in visual Basic would be a complete waste of time.

What you need to do is learn c++ or start learning about writing an OS and learn c++ that way but whatever you do get of VB now as in the OS development world you won't get very far. Unless you want your OS to run under windows :)

I don't know of any portugese tutorials. Your best bet is to go to the portugese google and search for OS tutorials or operatying system design.

Well, there's your problem.

What you need to do is:
1. Go away and learn C++
2. Write lots of programs in C++
3. Come back in 4 years time and write an OS in C++

and by then I might be good enough to translate my page for u (all on my own) ;)

Trust me, I know C++ and I'm in a world of pain trying to get C++ working correctly. I'm on the brink of giving in and doing my oo in C.

Why all the trouble i am having no problem with my kernel that i am doing in c++. Your website was definately a good starting point fo me though thanks for that. The only things i see as difficult to do in c++ now are virtual functions and what i would call fancy object orientated stuff which im staying away from. All i have is a basic object orientated kernel.
