Where is Windows stored in memory?

Does anyone know in which segment I should POKE to find Windows? Just for fun I want to make a program that tries to find the text "This program performed an illegal operation" in memory.

2) What makes you think that windows loads into a "single segment"? (A *memory* segment is 16 bytes. DOS doesn't even load into one of those.)
3) Windows runs in protected mode. There are no "segments." If by "POKE", you mean QB's POKE statement, there isn't any POKE either. (There isn't even a PEEK.)

(geocities sites require copying and pasting URLs.) I liked spam better when it was something that came in a can. Windows should be defenestrated.

Aye, my memory knowledge is a little bit off.
I meant PEEK, by the way.
