First off, assuming the other poster you speak of was still in this thread: nothing they said was out of line, and either way do not let anything said in the forums go to your head unless you are really trying to abuse the system (which, I must admit, was my initial impression of your first few posts).

Second, you seem to have a few things mixed up with VB.
1)None of the languages are really meant to target the bios. Languages are meant to extend the operating system.
2)Through Windows API you can create listeners for events similar to what you are speaking of, but VB is not the best language to do this. C++ would be more better language for this task. However, since you are a beginning programmer I would not tackle API listening this soon.
3)VB programs can run as a service or background program, but you need look into it more. It is possible, but I would still suggest you look into a simpler program to start your programming off.

Regards,

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
