    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.

    well since you mentioned it cpuwiz...

    the way to do it is to create a filter hook driver and hook the system service table functions such as ZwCreateFile(...) ZwOpenFile(...) etc etc. You will need to order the DDK from microsoft, there are samples on how to hook the system service table that come with the DDK, recommend you buy gary nebbitts windows nt/2000 native api reference and use google
