some people call it hacking
« on: October 26, 2002, 03:22:03 AM »
Does anyone know the significance of the contents of the cpu registers at boot time?  
I modified a bootblock (the hard way!) to find out those contents when booting from 1.3 and 3.1 and now I'm trying to step through the bootblock code of a wb2+ unfriendly non-dos game.  

One more question - can the exec call DoIO be used to read from a floppy?  

Thanks in advance.

Back at last.  Thanks for that info.  What I really need are the RKMs or I'll be bugging you all with this stuff everyday.  
I'm trying to DOSify a non-dos game - I found a site dedicated to WHDload which sounds very much like what I'm interested in.  Just need to get it on a floppy...  
Hey, how come monam does such a crap job of disassembling?  Can anyone recommend a better tool?
