Hi there,
sorry to write via mail, but at the moment I don't have a News server
connection.
I have one more question about reading memory values.
I tried the _farpeekb() function and it worked fine for memory in the "DOS
memory space". But outside this area it didn't work.
So I wanted to use dpmi... funtions. But I don't know the selector....
How can I get the selector I need? Do I have to create one?
How can I create a selector? How can I tell the function the memory area I
want to read if there are only relative or segmented addresses?
Sorry for my stupid questions!
In real mode programming I did something, but protected mode is something I
never learned (and propably never will learn)...
I think it is quite complicated...
With all this GDT, LDT, Descriptors, selectors and so on...
