INT 15 - TopView - "GETMEM" - ALLOCATE "SYSTEM" MEMORY AX = 1001h BX = number of bytes to allocate Return: ES:DI -> block of memory or 0000h:0000h (DV v2.26+) AX = status (DV v2.42) 0000h successful 0001h failed Note: use SETERROR (AX=DE15h) to avoid a user prompt if there is insufficient common memory. Under DV v2.42, this call never generates a user prompt regardless of the SETERROR value; instead, it always returns AX=0001h and ES:DI=0000h:0000h if out of memory SeeAlso: AX=1002h,AX=102Eh,AX=DE0Ch,AX=DE15h
