How can windows be on the logical "D" drive? Regardless of what physical drive we put Windows on, when it boots, that drive becomes "C" does it not?
Or am I all wet?

Must be different on a multiboot machine. (Its actually got ubuntu as its main OS, with windows 10 and 7 installed on C and D respectively). So for example my user folder is in D:\Users

I have a system with Windows installed on the D drive.

I install Windows on C and then again on D as a dual-boot backup system. It works for me.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Wet you are. I've had Windows boot from V: drive. Back before VM was around...
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

LOL. So I am finding out. I had always assumed that when windows booted from that other drive, that would become drive "C", but I guess you can set it to be different. Never had occasion or reason to do so.

At risk to turning this into programming question, what is the exact error you are getting?

Which is of course decimal for one of the 0xC000000xx errors the kernel uses.
Actually turns out to be STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_FORMAT for all the use that is.
As I said, the exact same install on WIndows on drive C succeeds.

Compiled as 32-bit, trying to load on a 64-bit OS (or vice-versa)? Generally that's the sort of thing this particular message is trying to say.

This is an error BUILDING the driver. VS2017 clearly can not find the WDK when Windows, it and the WDK are not installed on the D drive.

Dunno man...just throwing ideas.
Maybe Process Monitor (from Sysinternals) could reveal what it's looking for, and where it's looking (which would result in a failure). Or maybe you've established that already.
More and more, it seems that if you deviate from a "standard" install (whatever that means), things break. Not a good trend for sure.

Yes, because there is no one doing it better.

Have a read on the "Old New Thing" blog to see how much effort they spend on the OS. Doesn't mean they do that with each product ofcourse 
While I agree that the AmigaOS is still the superiour product, it proved to be too complex for a casual user. OS/2 warp died because no-one wanted to move to a weird platform, and IBM did not want to make it compatible with Windows apps. Soo, we kinda stuck with a Windows.

Unless somebody else is also making a WDK, then that's technically not a wrong statement.

Hi All,
I think at some point we have all experienced it. The Dilbert of the Day calendar the Sunday just gone is horribly relevant to the beast I am working on at the moment. I swear Scott Adams is on the project I am. The best part is a Consultant who is over seeing the project has taken it and placed it on the software leads desk!

It was just that it was so topical...

Just wanted to know from experienced parents if Son or daughter dynamics change as they grow up.
I have a daughter, who is now 11 spends more time with her friends and in social media. She comes to me or have a serious talk only when she has a problem that needs to be solved or she gets bored with internet. The only good time I really have daily is the 15 mins drive to drop her at school. That's when she jokes, makes fun or torments to upgrade the car.
Do boys too behave in a similar manner?
cheers,

Mine is just one year old. But let me tell you, boys just want to destroy things (including themselves).

Yes, for a few years. But my eldest will be 50 this year and he is quite a nice guy now.

Nope. From the onset of puberty to around age 25, boys just grunt. Occasionally they will whine, moan, or storm off in a huff. Painting the bedroom black is also an option. Conversation is not a priority for them, particularly with old folk (i.e. anyone over 25) who clearly will not be able to understand them in any way so why bother.
Fortunately, they do grow out of being little sh*ts, but it takes time ...
You do realise that on their 18th birthday you can dump all their stuff outside the house and change the locks?
