I am trying to write a protected mode application under the 386, and am
looking for pointers to books/articles and especially source code for
entering and leaving protected mode.

Ideally, I would like to be able to go into protect mode with a flat address
space, do stuff in 32 bit segments, and then return to real mode when necessary

Paging and multiple tasks are not needed, but would be nice to have.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
  Ken Sykes

P.S. Source code should run under MS-DOS and compile with MASM 5.1 (or lower)
     I already have Crawford and Gelsinger's book.
