That's the starting address for VGA, EGA, probably MCGA. ============================================================================== Today's message was brought to you by the letter 'S', the number 6, and =====> Einstein@cs.mcgill.ca <==== =====> Mike CHOWET | McGill CSUS VP External <===== Post back soon, now y'hear... ==============================================================================

A good source of information on this stuff is Ralf Brown's interrupt list, available in lots of places as INTRxxx.ZIP. Duncan Murdoch
