The pci configuration space can be accessed in two ways: 1- Use Intel's PCI bios functions 2- Use the 32 bits i/o ports 0CF8h, 0CFCh for config. mechanism To address a register you specify it in 0CF8h (32 bits!) which is also called the CONFIG_ADDRESS port. Here's how to do that: bit 31 should be set (ecd bit,

Should we use 32 or 64 bit Oracle 8i on Solaris 8
If you want to run these programs from OS/2, the "32-bit file access" in Windows for Workgroups 3.11 is useless, since OS/2 handles the file access. If I use the Blue, should I, after making the "DOS" "FAT" partition, install Windoze on it, then after making all my other (OS/2 & Linux) partitions, install OS/2

And what is the impact of not making the change? This is a 32-bit UNIX problem, as I understand it. 64-bit UNIX can use disks larger than 2GB.

At 32 bits per pixel, this is not a problem. A 32-bit register holds exactly one pixel. Does 24/32 bits make applications run faster 'cause the gfx board is better optimized for this bit depth?

What you also seem to be missing is that MS API's just moved from 16 to 32-bit. If you run around declaring certain things as int, all hell breaks loose. 1) They are bad because they offer no clue as to the intended use of a variable. You can and should do this with self-documenting variable names. Absolutely.

There is no real need for 64-bit hardware because file size operations are not that performance critical. Yes, the fraction of time spent on such calculations should be fairly small.

Should new programs still be System 6 compatible?
But you should use LPSTR or CHAR in those rare instances when you need to be specific about 8-bit data types. Otherwise, you should use LPTSTR and TCHAR I'm not sure what you mean by "BOOL instead of bool because I prefer the 8 bit type to the true/false type". First, BOOL is an int which is a 32-bit data type.

I think by default we should use names, because that will be least surprising to most people. I agree we need to support both. It sounds to me like the thing to do is to use 32 bit ints in our structure and have a translation mechanism that can turn those into local or remote numbers and names.

Actually graphics would, in theory, have a major performance boost when moving up to 64 bit hardware, due to the larger datasizes and more CPU registers. In addition to the 32-64 larger data sizes, 64 bit CPUs have more registers than 32 bit CPUs (in 64 bit mode, of course). Computation intensive graphics code will
