subject: Physical add. in Windows

Greetings
I need to write a Windows DLL that access a specific location in memory
because a proprietary device writes its stuff there.  This is easy under
DOS but under Windows I am getting totally confused with segments,
selectors , linear and physical memory etc etc.  I have a MS Knowledgebase
article Q105643 that gives two methods of doing this but i cannot work the
code fragments into something that does the job using my compiler (Borland
3.0).
Can anybody help with an example of working windows code?
If I wanted to be a Windows programer i would need to get all this memory
management stuff straight but i dont - this is just an aside to what I
really need to do.
can anybody help?
regards
David
