Hi. I'm not an experienced programmer, so this questions may be a bit
obvious for some of you.
Here they are: What is protected mode. i just know that it's available
for 80386+ CPUs.
What does the nomenclature xxxx:yyyy for memory locations mean? How do
I read it? How do I interpret it?
And the last one: My BIOS reports 639Kb total conventional memory. It
actually has 640K for conventional mem, 1408 extended. Where's that
Kilobyte that BIOS can't find?

   Don't send email answers, please. The local mailers is not working
properly, so some of the mails may be lost.
