Hi! I've noticed that stack grows down to address 40000h and not less.
For example, if in PE headers I set SizeOfStackReserved = 40000h, than the top of the stack will be at 80000h. If SizeOfStackReserved = 80000h, than the top of the stack is set to 0C0000h.
What is about addresses from 0 to 3FFFFh? What are they used for and if it is the same for all versions of Win32? Is it possible to get the top of the stack from the user application (on the fly)?
Thanks a lot!
