anybody knows where the bios font located in rom? 
You need to invoke an interrupt for retrieving a pointer to the font's location:

You can also re-program it to use other fonts, this way you can use the unused fonts, to make a logo for your OS, see below.
I have a demo some where.

I once built my own 4x4 font. (For working in basic VGA mode... or was it CGA?)Philip wrote:i decided to build my own font 8x16

Anyway, it was bulky, blocky and sometimes hard to read... but it worked.

Its in video memory as well - With a small bit of VGA trickery you can get it out.Philip wrote:anybody knows where the bios font located in rom?
