    Access RAM and ROM using windows.h

    using windows.h library i can get my virtual memory size
    and it is in the type of DWORDLONG
    now...

    Because the memory is divided to sectors , how can i tell which ones i can access and which ones i cant.

    how do i change DWORDLONG type to any number presentaition

    ,
    i have an assignment to write a program in any language that finds a string that might have been placed in RAM and ROM before.

    Thanks for your help.

    Seems unlikely. Please provide a link to the online description of the assignment.

    It seems a familiar problem

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
