[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] X00 fossil Driver

drezac@dcsc.dla.mil (Duane L. Rezac) (03/25/91)

Hello:

I have been trying to use the X00 fossil driver and have been having some
problems. Everything is fine if I use INT 14 to access it, but it fails
when I use the hallpi functions (X00 and X00X).

System Configuraton - tried with x00 both as a .sys and a tsr - both failed.

using x00 version 1.24

test code: compiled with Quickc 2.0 , small mode, linked with the csmall.obj
           that came with x00.


#include <stdio.h>
#include <dos.h>
#include "x00.h"

union REGS regs;

main()
{

        regs.h.ah = 0x04;
	regs.x.dx = 0x01;
	X00(&regs,&regs);
	if(regs.x.ax == 0x1954) /* ax will contain 0x1954 if port is*/
            exit(0);            /*  activated */
         exit(-1);
};



Any Suggestions on why it won't work?
