Hi,
I want to use the keyboard directly through its hardware interruption.
It's the INT 9, which has no input data, and which fills a buffer at 40:1C
with the scancode of each keystroke.
Can anyone help me giving me the ASM x86 code to use it ? It has not worked
so far.
Could it work under the protected mode of Win9x ?
Can I access directly the address: 40:1C ? How can I do that ?
Thanks a lot,
Alphaps (Alphaps@hotmail.com)
