Guys, I just install Windows XP 64 at my pc AMD Athlon X2 and I don´t know how to compile my OS .

I was using djgpp At my PC with Windows XP 32.

and what can I do with my Windows XP 64? what compiler ?

Somebody Help me, Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?

I´m almost pulling all my hear of my head!!!!

The only difference in using Windows XP 64bit as opposed to Windows XP 32bit is the drivers. Most other applications should just run normally.

I would recommend installing cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com), and making a cross-compiler (from the Wiki).

Just out of interest, why did you install 64bit XP if you don't know what benefits it has?

I just installed Cygwin, now how do I compile my os from djgpp with that Cygwin?

could you show me how ? some scripts ? do I have to change anything at my source ?
please :=)

DJGPP is GCC compiled to run on DOS/Windows. Cygwin is a POSIX emulation layer so you can compile programs meant for POSIX systems on Windows and use them.

Cygwin comes with GCC pre-compiled. It won't take much to convert your DJGPP OS source to something Cygwin's GCC can compile. You should probably build a crosscompiler (see GCC Cross-Compiler.)

Just make your compile script for DJGPP, say .bat file, to a makefile.
