Best way to learn is to look through open source examples to see how various groups do supportable code or systems work, etc. If you are trying to learn PC coding, I think it's best to mostly ignore other processor types that are very different because their coding approaches will be different also at system compatibility levels. While one must go to "reference manuals" for the exact syntax, etc, one may only learn spagetti code that way and may not use a form or style that fits with operating system contexts. Some/most environments set up register usage conventions so that calls can pass parameters in a standard way. Knowing tricks like that can save needing to do cumbersome "workaround code" to interface interrupts, etc. The result will be more lean and bug-free. Find something like utilities or applications you like and spruce them up as a learning exercise. Chuck
