How to make a OS in Visual Basic?
Now you may thing NO, you can not make a boot up one. I mean one like this: SilviSoft Crystal OS.
so how can I do that? I can not post on MSDN due to subscriptions *MAD* so can anyone help me do this task?

Maybe you typed your e-mail wrong? What error do you get?
(BTW, check your software thread. I have posted some sound playing code for you)

Re: How to make a OS in Visual Basic?
Are you absolutely sure you want to use VB6? VB.NET is so much easier... 
And so much more extensive.
From http://www.programmersheaven.com/2/FAQ- … ifferences
The greatest change in VB6 and VB.NET is of runtime environment. VB6 used the VB-Runtime while VB.NET uses the .Net Common Language Runtime (.Net CLR). The CLR is much better designed and implemented than VB-Runtime. The CLR uses better code translation through Just in Time compiler while VB-Runtime interprets the code. The CLR Garbage Collector is also more efficient than VB6 one as it may detect cyclic references too.
