I just installed the full blown djgpp.  I downloaded every file from
oak.oakland.edu and installed them on my 486.  WOW..talk about taking
a long time to uncompress!  Anyway the reason why I initially got djgpp 
was for graphics work specific to my graphics card(Cirrus Logic 5426).

Protected mode should make things run alot easier.

But, there are some things I'm unclear on.  For example, do the  INT calls
still work the same?  Before I was using BC++ ver 3.1.  What about the
asm codes?  Specifically "out".  

Before I accessed video memory at 0xA000:0000.  Obviously with protected 
mode and flat memory that address is no longer meaningfull.  What is the 
new address for video?  I read the docs but I was unclear on what 
exactly happens with the memory changes.  

Also, how do i get info.exe to work?  When I run it I get an error about
dir not found.??!!??!!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
