Can someone explain to me how to access memory beyond the 640k
barrier imposed by DOS.  Some documentation that recently crossed
my eyes led me to believe that this s was in fact possible, but my
microsoft C compiler seems to stop short of the 720k I require.
I am running on a 486 based machine with 8 megs and DOS 5, and am
primarily interested in allocating memory for rapid storage of 
image data.

As a newcomer to the PC programming world, any help would be much
appreciated.
