Hi,

have a look here:

and here:

i have pasted the code below:

you can use
BOOL ExitWindowEx(UINT uOptions, DWORD dwRes)
uOptions are
EWX_FORCE
EWX_LOGOFF
EWX_POWEROFF
EWX_REBOOT
EWX_SHUTDOWN
for more info refer to MSDN etc.
or
BOOL ExitWindows()
e.g
BOOL bok = ExitWindows(0,0)

to abort shutdown process use
BOOL AbortSystemShutdown(LPCTSTR pMachine)
e.g
BOOL bok = AbortSystemShutdown(0)


If this doesnt work try out freecode.com

Can you paste a sample code pls? I don't know which header files to include and stuff.....

thnx

Set all i,o registers to 0 and call dosx86() with those IO values.

where i,o are unions. (union REGS i,o)

Hi,

You're making me even more confused...WHy need to use unions and stuff like dosx86()? I don't know how to use them.
