Résumé
Technology leaders from Microsoft and Intel have
written this guide for those who create systems and
peripherals that run Microsoft Windows 98 and Microsoft
Windows NT Workstation 5 operating
systems. These guidelines are based on two key goals: to
reduce the total cost of PC ownership for
corporations, and to ensure that all types of users have
easy-to-use machines capable of running
their Win32-based applications. Referring to these
guidelines when developing new hardware and
drivers can help you be sure that your customers will have
an optimal experience when using your
product with Windows 98 or Windows NT 5.
New guidelines for development with the Windows 98 and
Windows NT 5 platforms are provided in this
book for these key technologies and features:
- BIOS, power management, and Plug and Play design
requirements for easy installation, configuration,
and
maintenance of the PC system and its devices
- Hardware acceleration based on the Microsoft DirectX
foundation class for high-performance media
such as 2-D and 3-D graphics display and audio
- New technologies expected to become widely available, such
as the IEEE 1394 high-speed bus and the
Universal Serial Bus (USB), along with new device types such as DVD, Device Bay,
and digital imaging devices
- Multi media-enabled networking, with better
performance and higher bandwidth, plus new guidelines
for home networking
- "Software modem" solutions, with specific
performance guidelines
- System and device designs for receiving and decoding
digital television broadcasts on the PC
- Wireless networking and input devices
- Incremental changes to basic design guidelines that match
the evolution of industry specifications and
current market standards in concert with the capabilities of Windows 98 and Windows NT 5 including the
next step in the migration away from using the ISA bus for add-on devices
