I am looking for a book or some other source of information on programming
PC hardware, specifically Video and possibly using DMA for fast data
acquisition and such.  I have Norton's GUIDE to the IBM PC and PS/2, but
I am interesting in programming the hardware directly and not through the
ROM BIOS.  I have checked my libraries and come up with nothing, ditto with
the local bookstores.  I do not want to use assembler, I can do everything
assembler can do in C ( or just use in-line assembley code, no flames
please.)  Has anyone come across a book or such that is "useful" ?

email or post, whichever seems appropriate.
thanks,
-ms
