Hi Sylvain,

Save the ss and sp to some place, then load values that represent
an area that you have defined in your TSR for that....

Not exactly. Writing TSR's and writing about them are two different
things.

SL> All device drivers are TSR. And there are many for each OS.
That's not exactly true.... A device driver is structured by design
for the operating system. It has criteria in it's makeup for that.
When a device driver is called, it isn't stopping another program
somewhere during it's operation and in an unknown state. A device
driver is called by programs. The program that's calling it is in
a known state of operation.
SL> Do you have a tutorial by dave williams? Mime is like a bit too old.
Actually, I tossed my tutorials long ago. I get new references.
Chip data books, interupt listings, little bits of code here and there.
I spend quite a bit of time just coding first one thing or another.
