16 I posted an answer to your question in the newsgroup. I also have

19 I can email you the binary for VxD which does exactly what you need:
f021941d26c9 binary drivers
nick
parents:
diff changeset
20 given a physical address, returns a pointer that can be used by a
f021941d26c9 binary drivers
nick
parents:
diff changeset
21 Win32 application. I'll also give you source for a Win32 app which
f021941d26c9 binary drivers
nick
parents:

22 uses the VxD to read an area of physical memory.

24 I don't offer this solution to everyone, since in most cases the
f021941d26c9 binary drivers
nick
parents:
diff changeset
25 proper solution is for them to write a VxD which interacts with their
f021941d26c9 binary drivers
nick
parents:
diff changeset
26 hardware, rather than simply getting a pointer to the hardware and
f021941d26c9 binary drivers
nick

27 interacting with it from an application.

36 A long time ago, you sent me your VXD for reading an area of physical
