is is possible to write to a000:0000 in text mode and have the pixel change color or can you only write to the screen with the address b800:0000?
can you do both at the same time?
you cant write to A000:0000 in text mode (the memory is locked, you can with tricks unlock it and make it useable. my bootloader used a trick to unlock the extra 128kb memory and store itself there so all base memory was free to load a kernel anywher!)
basically if your in text mode its 0xB800, if your in a graphic mode its 0xA000
