VS 2008 - How To Monitor Drive Activity
Jan 6, 2010
I'm looking for a way to monitor drive activity using Visual Basic 2008. I want to create a small utility to simulate an LED in the system tray for drive read/write activity. I've found several such utilities that do this, but they all lack one thing or another, or they are over bloated with stuff I don't want or need, etc. I want to write my own so it will be like I want it. To get started, I need to know how to monitor drive activity.

Can I monitor the registry for changes similar to how sysinternals process monitor does it in VB? I have checked many different articles and C# samples but not come any closer to getting an answer, I would like to know if there an easier way (a VB sample perhaps)that you folks can share. Ultimately I'd like to be able monitor other things too like file system, processes etc but wonder most about how the registry can be done in VB...Would using system.management be a start? Or WMI? if so is there a nice VB sample..

Imports System.ServiceProcess
Imports System.IO

2 problems: first, intellisense error saying: 'fswService' is a type and cannot be used as an expression. second, I can not figure out a way to pass on to the service the path of the folder to watch (which is stored at My.Settings.userPath).

So I got this idea to write a very small application for a school project that raises a balloon from the system tray everytime a new process is getting launched or an existing process quits.
With my current code, I am getting the list of processes using a timer.This list needs to be compared with the previous list and detect differences (if this is possible, or should I use a different concept)? I have no clue how to do this.
I currently have:A ListView (ListView1), with the View property to "Details" A Timer (at a 5000ms interval), with the following

I'm running the following WMI script to get the associations between drive letters and physical drives on the system, but for some reason it omits CDROMs/DVD-ROMs. Can someone tell me how to get those as well?
Code:
ComputerName = "."
Set wmiServices = GetObject _
("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=Impersonate}!//" & ComputerName)
Set wmiDiskDrives = wmiServices.ExecQuery _
("SELECT DeviceID FROM Win32_DiskDrive")

I found many solutions in C++ however they seems fail to satisfy my requirement. I need code to turn off monitor when i'm away and if i want it to turn on, i must type specified key instead of any key press or mouse movement as usual.

This question may be vague but I was wondering if anyone has ever implemented an application that basically creates a UI to list and monitor all running applications you have running. This applies to many developers who might have multiple programs running continuously and it would be great to have an app that monitors these programs..or does anyone think it is just unnecessary.

I have a program that allows the user to enter a drive letter into a text box. The program then takes the letter and find the physical drive number (i.e. deviceharddisk3..). It then stripes out everything and leaves me with the number 3.
In VB6 I used mDrive.bas from vbAccelerator.com and it worked perfectly. I have been all over the internet and back and cannot find a solution written in VB.NET.

Im wondering if there is some way of monitoring individual processes (read: not mine) cpu usage and ending (asking politely then killing it off) the offending process. I dont know about you, but i've been in multiple instances where i've been unable to get to taskmanager to "choose" process to be killed. For multiple reasons (Either taskmanager has been visible, but a game window is still showing (alt+tab not working), leading to a guess game of clicking processes or cpu usage has been so high that one mouseclick takes 30 sec.)

Does anyone know of a way to detect recent activity in a VB.net windows forms application?
We have a retail store where users share floor computers, the application will be on each machine and require a log in before use. I am trying to find a way to automatically close the application if it has been idle for lets say 10 minutes.
I guess I could do something similar with the current windows log on session - set a gp that logs the user out after 10 minutes of inactivity - but if there is an easy, non memory intensive way to do it in vb.net i would rather use that method

The drive is connected via USB and the problem I'm having is that, periodically, while my code is executing, the usb drive seems to disconnect and reconnect. (Nothing to do with the program, but the drive itself).I want to find a way to prevent these temporary drive reconnects from interrupting my code. IE, i want to insure that whatever read or write that is requested is actually executed even in the case of a temporary drive interruption.

I am trying to get the physical drive (device) number from the drive letter. If the user inputs the drive letter C the program will find the associated physical device number. For example if I input C then the result needs to be \Device\HardDrive1\... Some call it NT Device Name; I think. I have the code for VB6 from vbAccelerator, which works perfectly, but it does not work in VB.NET. My question is there a simple way of pulling the drive info that contains the drive letter and the physical device number. I have searched the internet and found nothing for VB.NET. I would post code but I have nothing for .NET.
