I am writing a simple text mode game where I use a near pointer to the video
memory (oxb8000).

I am using near_pointer_enable (or whatever) and it is fine expect that is
crashes under NT.

Is there a way that I can make a char * pointer to the text mode video
memory that is NT compliant.

Thanks in advance.
