Abstract: The present invention provides a storage device and a method for protecting its protected partition in which the storage device comprises a master boot record unit and a protected partition, the protected partition comprises an application data area and a system data area for storing application data and system data to be provided to a user, respectively, and the system data area is in a customized data format of nonstandard file system. With the storage device and the method for protecting its protected partition, security of system data in the protected partition of the storage device is enhanced.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a processing device and a processing method for a hardware interrupt, for processing the sharing interrupt. The processing method for the hardware interrupt comprises steps of: after receiving a hardware interrupt, determining whether the hardware interrupt is a sharing interrupt, and if not, sending the interrupt to a corresponding interrupt processing procedure, otherwise continuing; obtaining a sharing apparatus identifier of the hardware interrupt; for the device corresponding to each obtained sharing apparatus identifier, determining whether it has generated an interrupt according to the interrupt status in a status register of it's PCI configuration space, respectively, and if so, sending the interrupt to the corresponding interrupt processing procedure of the device, otherwise not sending the interrupt to he corresponding interrupt processing procedure.

Abstract: A method for acquiring graphics device interface data and DirectX data by use of a filter driver transparent to transparent to a graphics device interface engine, DirectX kernel and a real display driver is disclosed, the method comprises steps of: updating the graphics device interface, and acquiring the graphics device interface data by use of a corresponding graphics device interface function in the filter driver; acquiring, for DirectDraw in DirectX, DirectDraw application and video update data by intercepting frame switch and bit block transfer operations of DirectDraw part; acquiring, for Direct3D in DirectX, data of Direct3D application by intercepting the update interface of Direct3D part. With the method of present invention, an integral acquisition of Windows GDI and DirectX data can be achieved while DirectX function remains available.
