Problems getting a window capture with Bitblt and PrintWindow.

Heh, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S NO VarPtr()!??! How will I do ANYTHING!" --me, the first time I ever tried rewriting a project in VB.NET.

I dabbled with 68k a bit way back in high school, because all the best games for my TI-89 calculator were written in it (sometimes my French teacher wondered why I needed my calculator out in her class, LOL), but forgot just about all of it since the 8 years after college in my life, were, well, I forgot a lot... only have the most superficial understanding; the most common instructions, the basic ideas of registers and the stack. It's been on the 'to-do list' for a long, long time, because I'm fascinated by the things people like The trick, wqweto, etc do with thunks in VB6, and would eventually like to be able to do them myself.

I was contemplating an approach of learning x86 and x86_64 simultaneously, since going forward I want to write everything compatible with both like I'm doing now with tB... but there's virtually no beginner-friendly resources for the latter, any recommendations?
