I am trying to access 0xD000 using a simple C program compiled with
DJGPP and am getting

Exiting due to signal SIGSEGV
General Protection Fault at eip=0000362a

When I access video memory at 0xB800, no problem.  Any ideas?  Is
there a function call I need to include in order to allow protected
mode to have access to this area?

Operating system Win98
