physical disks and logical partitions....

hello,

I 'd like to get information of the Physical Disks and Logical Partitions in the PC, which API should I use?

thanks.

It isn't that simple. Win 9X doesn't know about much about parititions, NT uses the registry.

Go here for an explanation:

They supply freeware & code in C++ for a lot of what they talk about. Use the search facility on the page to find more information.

Jim, thanks for your reply.

I am trying to find more info from that site.

just wondering how to implment it using VB code. for both NT/98.

Thanks.:)

The NT part is obvious - I don't know an answer for Win9X. If I had to guess, I'd seach the American Megatrends site (AMI BIOS people) and look for code that gets partition infomation from the BIOS, if it exists.

I can't do that at the moment.
