Or simply change memory model in your compiler options (providing
it has such an option) - the 64kB limit is in Tiny/Small/Compact
only, use Medium or Large. Note: for Medium must remember pointers
to code and data are not of same size, avoid converting pointer to
function to void pointer and back, it causes incorrect result.
Large causes all pointer to be 4-byte, as it is on other machines.
[it is assuming you program in C based on group you post to]

Moving to GCC/DJGPP is necessary when you hit 640kB...
