It is just a normal PE (DLL style) with some special functions...
There is a kernel mode tutorial on this site/forum

Four-F has written excelent startup tutorials here:

WOW, Aim High, Aim Big, but every fish starts as an egg.

Run through the examples with MASM32, and get some basics under your fins, and then tackle a system driver.

What do you want to do with a system driver program ???

P1 is corect,

IF
you are not a master in programming in ASM or at least in C
THEN
you are on a road of extreeme frustration
ENDIF

So it is better to do some standard win32api programms first, increase complexity slowly and only when you honestly feel very capable and experienced do start thinking about drivers.

Kernel mode drivers on Windows are not easy to understand or to programm... be it in ASM or in whatever other programming language.
