Application.Restart() will do the trick my articles

Create a new Project, and in the Project Types treeview, select "Windows" and then "Windows Service". You'll probably want to make 2 programs. The service itself, and then a small Windows app to act as an interface for it.

Yes ! You are right. It only sets the size and the position of the windows inside the current desktop. IT TAKES 99% of the CPU. I never checked that before with any software I wrote... and I don't know why ! I design most of my time embedded application, so this is always the only software in the system. Some time, I design software for windows like TOOLS and other little stuff. GAMES is my home project. Is there something with the Windows Message loop ? Can I give sometime "the hand" or the control to the OS for a little time slice (for other software) ? How to do that ? Reducing cpu use about 5%, Is-it enough for Windows to update the screen, etc. In embedded system, I always try to don't use more tha 50-70% of the CPU time but with Windows, I was sure that Windows CONTROLS/HANDLE it for us. I never get involved with this issue on Windows. You are right, my GAME use 99% of the CPU. What to do ? Thanks.;) Danny Gilbert, enginneer Montréal, Canada

Hi Danny Just wondering how you went with this. cowtech Sydney Australia

Sounds more like your COM port settings are wrong and/or mismatched. That said, I could neither get my infrared serial port dongle worked reliably on the beta. I recall seeing a bug somewhere related to my issue that could have been the cause. xacc.ide-0.1.1.11 - now with Settings & AutoComplete(kinda)

Using this example I can set a row to a specific color based on its content, but it doesn't work if I sort the datagrid or use a DataView.RowFilter. Does anyone know how to make it work? To clarify, in the paint method I get the number of the row of the datatable, so if row #2 has a value that sets the background to red, row #2 in the datagrid becomes red. But if I use a RowFilter so that row #1 of the datatable isn't shown in the datagrid, it is still row #2 of the datagrid that is red even though the content has changed and the row that should be red now is row #2. /Cesa

The NT4 kernel contained most of what is known as WDM (win2k is just NT5 and XP is NT5.1). Almost everything except the plug and play stuff in fact. You can still use the old NT4 API, it is still there, your driver might fail WHQL though as some of these calls are 'disallowed' these days. The cals in question are the ones that access the hardware, these days it is supposed to be done through one of the system bus drivers. However, you can still wirte your own bus driver, we do, and still pass WHQL, so it is a little murky in this respect. Also, 2k and XP (NT 5 and 5.1) still run NT4 drivers, so you will have no problem if you use the NT4 DDK to write the driver. If the device is a network device, and you just stick to using the NDIS api, then it will run on CE (and linux too as there is an NDIS wrapper for linux). If you need to call any of the standard API funcs though your driver will not run on CE. Windows 98 supports a subset of WDM. What sort of device is it, because it is fairly straight forward to write a monolithic (hardware to IO manager) driver of the ISA bus on NT4. Nunc est bibendum!
