Yep, I get funny looks from others when I use debug to determine what
video
chipset is in unknown machines so I know what updated drivers to download.
(Seriously -- in XP, do start->run->cmd then type debug then type "d
c000:0000"
enter then enter again.)
Is XP guaranteed to map 0x000c0000 physical into c000:0 virtual in a VM86
session? Does it keep the whole ROM space mapped to its corresponding
physical addresses? It certainly has to hide the video RAM... I would
have expected it to replace the ROM with one of its own as well.
