The following list outlines development support for the DDK.
CompuServe Information Service (CIS).
Microsoft sponsors “The Microsoft Connection” area (GO MICROSOFT) on CompuServe, which consists of public forums and libraries in three categories: end users, developers, and vendors of Windows-based software. These forums provide self-help and technical assistance for most Microsoft products.
The forum for Windows Device Driver (and Software Development) Kit support provides peer-to-peer support for device driver questions, and its public
libraries include a wealth of information such as sample programs, utilities, drivers, files, and development tools.
Microsoft Knowledge Base and Software Library.
Microsoft also offers development Q&A and applications information through the Microsoft Knowledge Base, a product database that contains information
on verified product bugs (by version), workarounds, and documentation errors.
The Microsoft Software Library offers a wide variety of product files with coding examples and demonstrations. A free product suggestion and problem report form is available so that customers can easily submit suggestions or
problems directly to Microsoft.
