Steve - Re: " I don't know who that clown at Intel is that said MS release a patch that allows NT to use KNI, but he certainly wasn't talking about NT 4.0 (maybe he was referring to Win 2000?). "

Many workstation developers - hardware & software - need access to KNI features - and I see no reason why Microsoft couldn't release a "patch" - which is clearly different from the KERNEL CODE.

Besides, graphics functions wouldn't/shouldn't belong within the KERNEL anyhow.
