I wrote a Bt848 driver for a customer . If you like just e-mail me. Now Brooktree is supposed to have a driver development kit or a fully functional driver with sources for Win95 and when WDM gets release it will also work for NT 5.0. As to how I wrote the video portion of the driver ? Just read the databook and a lot of hardwork mostly because the databook falls very shy of being a damn good databook. It would have a help a lot for instance to provide an actual example on how to generate the microcode. After I wrote the driver and had a few more questions I contacted Brooktree and they sent me a dos kit which is okay however I felt it was somewhat lacking. I forgot... Microsoft has a WDM Bt848 driver with sources which is supposed to work for Win97 and Win NT 5.0. Last I check the WDM stuff is not complete for Win XXX.. At any rate, feel free to send me e-mail if you like for further discussion. Not too keen on discussing Win 95 stuff on this forum since is not pertinent and yes I realize that were asking for programming how to info.
