Hi, I'm posting this for a collegue. He's busy wit some kind of installation tool and because of this he wants to detect some things like: Extended memory (especially the stuff below 1 MB) detection Expanded memory keyboard type (GENERIC PC , XT , AT KBDLK) CPU type ( 86, 88, [1234]86) CoPro (87, [1234]87 Weitek, others) display adapter (CGA EGA VGA others) We really appreciate more info about these subjects, preferably some C Source examples. The CMOSER ROM and VIEWCMOS programs from comp.binaries.ibm.pc explained a lot of details of PC-CMOS RAM but not everything is clear. Please E-mail to bernards@ecn.nl or to my collegue seignette@ecn.nl Thanx, -- Marcel Bernards, UNIX & Net sysadm Netherlands Energy Research Foundation ECN P.O.
