Hi!

I've just coded a keyboard interrupt in DJGPP 2.0. The problem is that
the handler is written in C (not in asm) so i can't lock the wrapper and
messages like "Page fault" appears on the screen. 
I've heard that to solve this problem I could disable Virtual memory so 
that my handler wont page.
How can I do this?

If I could disable virtual memory, then how much memory will be left for 
my programs, I've got 8Mb physical memory (can I use all of that).

Thanks in advance!
