  My port can already do this :mrgreen:
  
  In fact that was the way my "hello world" was done. :zwinker:

  I never doubted this. This is the reason I began the port of Free Pascal in the first place.
  
  
  
  My current plan is to test this with a x86 QEMU VM. I only need to get a x64 version of a 2003 or XP (as I'm a stundent I'm able to download this legally ;) ). But I might come back to one, once the first tests are successful.
  
  
  
  This is not the REASON. The format of sys files is not different...

  By only using available documentation like MSDN, books about Windows internals and the source code of ReactOS I can be (mostly) sure that my code will be free of copyright problems. The last I'd want for the Free Pascal / Lazarus community is a copyright infringement.
  
  x64 is only a small problem. All I'd need for it is a VM with a 64-bit Windows and some small adjustments inside the compiler....

  Well, I think either they've written a driver in C (the usual way) or they are using the API provided by the NT kernel to usermode (part of them is available from Win32, too, I think) - and yes, the kernel provides much information about the hardware it's running on :mrgreen:
