So I have 2 harddrives and one has bochs and windows and the other has ubuntu and qemu installed. Now my problem is when I run my image in qemu it doesnt work and I'm not sure why... All the image does is get into 64bit with vbe mode 411b, interrupts still disabled and draw some dots. I also compiled and made a qemu image and that one doesnt work either.

Is that even possible with switches, I read the documentation and tried to make it the same and have failed for atleast 2 hours.

Except, if your image runs in Bochs but not in qemu then there is a bug in your code. Best to sort that out now whilst things are simple rather than just ignoring it.
So, problem not really solved.
