Hi,
   Os can be built only using Machine Code. A Compiler can be built using Qb but it can only interpret Pseudo-Code. ie. Our program has to implement the code. I would like to try that. I want some help. If anybody is interested please E-mail me.-'evanssam11@Hotmail.com'

you could write the OS in QBASIC, but you cannot use BASIC commands.  Everything in the program has to be OPCODE (ie: hex number for an ASM mnumonic).  It would be much easier to use TASM or MASM to help you write it in ASM

ASM is for Assembley.
