I'm trying to use the Video Blaster vbse100 under djgpp, and so far so hoopy,
but unfortunately, I cannot control the board once my program has loaded.

Can anyone who's managed to make it work please show me how to call the
device-driver TSR that comes with the board SDK from within the pm-environments
(whenever I call int86() I get a signal violation, when I call int 80h (where
the driver loads).. int 21h I can call no problem).

Alternatively, are there any vbse100 drivers out there for gcc? If not, can
anyone give me the hardware programming info? We bought the SDK, but that
just supplies 8-bit (maybe 16) real mode libraries and no low-level info.
I don't want to wade through the TSR assembly if I don't have to.

Please help!

Thanks in advance,
Kevin Meyer
