    that's clear and makes most hardware safe to use drivers excepted hence all the fuss over opensource drivers.

    ok moving on to the mainboard then... is it possible to create a hardcoded bootstrap os to send all data moving through the mainboard to an external source via a hidden comms port?

    Re: Hardware viruses

    thanks for the reply superbovine...

    The Well Known Ports are those from 0 through 1023.

    The Registered Ports are those from 1024 through 49151

    The Dynamic and/or Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535

    isn't it possible to build in a port that is not accessible to the os as well?
