Multitasking in real-mode...

Post by Kenneth Garin »

I know this has been asked before but how do I do it? I would love examples, or at least a *good* description of how it's done. I know the application programs are loaded into memory and the kernel keeps track of the applications segment:offset and the timer hook jumps to the code where it left off and ect... but I need details. I would really REALLY appreciate any help.
I know that memory protection is damn near impossible but regardless of these pitfalls I still would love to learn how to do this in real-mode.
Thankyou so very much ;D, Kg.

In reply to my last post, I have good assembly knowledge so I prefer if any examples to be in asm.
