hi all,

    we have started working for our project. we are to develop pmode OS. my friend says that, we can access the BIOS interrupts from the protected mode by simply specifying the base address of the IDTR to the BIOS interrupts. we are struck with this point. please help me.

thanks in advance

Your friend is wrong. You can't easily use BIOS interrupts from protected mode.
