| Post subject: | How do I create a bootloader with visual studio? |
I want to make my own OS, so I decided to start with the bootloader. I want to know how to use Visual Studio to make a bootloader and how to use Bochs to test it. I am using C++ and my platform is Windows XP. I searched it up on Google, but the results were either irrelevant or skipped information I needed. Please help. |

The wiki is there ==> http://wiki.osdev.org/Main_Page. I'm not sure what your specific question is. There are pages on assembly language, bootloaders, Bochs, Visual Studio and much more. |

I don't think there's a single page that'll tell you how to do it. You're going to have to ask specific questions to get your answer and build up your knowledge as you go. You need to provide information about what you know and what you've done so far so that people can answer your questions. BTW, may I ask why you want to use Visual Studio ? I feel that for a beginner that there are more suitable tools. EDIT: If you were to use Cygwin, for example, you could follow many of the tutorials in the wiki without having to make changes. |

Hello, There isnt really anything special involved here. As long as you know how to set up MSVC and find a nice way of allowing your C code to call Bios services, its shouldnt be that difficult as those are the main obstacles. I can provide more info of how I did it if requested. Not recommended for beginner system developers though do to lack of tutorials. |
