I want to build a new computer system with c++!

How can I ???
Start by implementing an OS on top of Windows / Linux. So have a large file
which represents your "disk". Then write a program to store data and
programs into this big file, and display them. Then write code to run the
programs in your virtual environment.

It's quite hard, but fun to do, and it might just make you billions if you
can come up with something better than Bill Gates.
(Really this belongs on comp.programming).

You can't "build a computer system" using C++. C++ is simply a
programming language, it has no tangible, physical presence. It's
like asking someone to construct a building out of words. If you want
to write software in C++ to *control* a computer system, then visit
alt.os.development for more info, as well as platform specific
newsgroups
