yet another hello

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Welcome to the forums! Glad to have another OS developer on board. :)

A handy hint: Your most precious resources as a budding operating system developer are the Intel CPU manuals and the OSDev.org Wiki. Never forget that.

AMD has a fairly decent collection of documentation as well, including manuals and processor specific development guides (..the BKDG is good to have).

Unfortunately this information isn't in the wiki yet, though the information is contained within a forum topic. Hope that helps.
