Hello (again) from Gregg C Levine Richard, according to a guide book for programming for the Evil Empire, that BIOS call, INT 15H AH=88H, which does mean AX=88H, since your using the high order byte for that call, does this, Get Extended Block Size. Upon return from the interrupt the AX register will contain the number of 1K blocks.
The book itself claims to be "The Programmers PC Sourcebook", but since its published by those guys, that's why I gave that introduction. In short, yes you do need to make it work. I don't know why yours is calling it, and the emulator does not. Is this on the native BIOS? I should think so. And is this for the video BIOS that lives on the card, or as a part of the VGA setup, as a whole? And I don't know why his interrupt list doesn't have it, its supposed to be extremely extensive. ------------------- Gregg C Levine hansolofalcon@worldnet.att.net ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."

Anyone have a clue what Int 15 AX=b808 does? It's not in Ralph's
list
and none of the emulator code supports it.
My video bios is calling it so Im trying to determine if I can blow
it
off or if I actually have to make it work.
