Can someone give me a real primitive example of direct probing memory in C?
Anything would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, I've tried that one, but it just doesn't compile. Any other examples?

Well,
On the Mega-Tokyo site, they've got a forum (if you look
at the very bottom of the FAQ menu's. And there is
a thread somewhere in that forum that talked about such
issue on gcc does not compile well with this code and some
people said something about using extended BIOS calls to
determine memory instead of direct probing... (the URL is

and check it out... maybe it would help.
