Now I've visited the page with the BIOS interrupts (http://www.ctyme.com/intr/cat-003.htm). Now I'd like to know if those are all of the BIOS interrupts?
When you have no operating systems on a PC (hard disk empty), the only interrupts you can call are the BIOS interrupts. Then the OS (and other programs) implements the other interrupts. Is that right?

BIOS interrupts (2) +question
can I call the BIOS interrupts from windows? I mean, will they allow me to do so?

RE:BIOS interrupts (2) +question
it depends:
-in an emulated dos environment - the v86 mode - yes, no problem
-under protected mode, so in a real windows app - no, even further: under protected mode interrupts 0-0x1f are for exception handling so it might crash the program.
Hope it helps,
Adrian
