The interrupt handler must be in a FIXED code segment, and should be in a
DLL (dynamic link library).  In order for you to attach the handler to the
interrupt in protected mode you will need to use some DPMI (dos protected
mode interface) services.  You can get the DPMI spec free from Intel, or
download it from CompuServe.  Sorry, I don't have the number for Intel
handy, but someone on the net will...

Once your handler is installed, it should be a simple matter for it to
dispatch messages to any windows who care to listen.
