GPF with Interrupts greater than 31 (solved)
Posted: Wed Oct 04, 2006 3:02 am
At this point I have absolutly no idea what this wierd problem could cause.
So the Problem I faced is that I wanted to get IRQ's working. IDT is correctly set up I checked that several times. I got the Exception Handlers working corectly and if I remap the PIC on a base adress lower than 32 than there are no problems. But as soon as I exceed the 'magical' 31 border there is always a General Protection Fault.
The PIC couldn't cause the problem because I tested it with the int Opcode and it ends in the same failure. It's like the uper Interrupts are a kind of disabled but I haven't found any hint in the Intel documents.
If anyone has an idea how this could be solved I would be very grateful:)
