Hey guys.
I need some help finding some resources on classic Win32 programming. Im currently working on a project that requires it and i was told that there are not that many books written on this subject.
The topics i was told to focus on are:
- Threading
- File IO
- Hook Functions
- USB connectivity
- Named Pipes
- And some GUI related topics
If you guys can give me a maybe a link to a tutorial or suggest any really good books, id appreciated.
THnx

Most of those topics and other topics are covered in this book:
Programming Windows by Charles Petzold
a good online resource:

You can find some good articles on the Microsoft Systems Journal site:

The crows maintain that a single crow could destroy the heavens. Doubtless this is so. But it proves nothing against the heavens, for the heavens signify simply: the impossibility of crows.
Whoever told you that there aren't many books on regular win32 programming, well, they're wrong. I suggest:
Programming Windows
Programming Applications for Microsoft Windows
Programming the Windows Driver Model
Windows 95 Systems programming Secrets (kinda outdated, but a lot of it is still applicable today)
Microsoft Windows Internals, 4th Edition
I could recommend quite a few more, but I think those suit what you want to do.
operating systems: mac os 10.6, debian 5.0, windows 7
editor: back to emacs because it's more awesomer!!
version control: git
