Subject: Mapping video memory in version 2.0


Hi everyone,

I have been developing a 3D graphics library in version 1.0 and before 
installing version 2 I wondered if anyone could answer this question :

GO32 handled vga page swaps so I could access the video mem as a contiguous 
block of 1MB without being worried about different chipsets or page sizes etc.

As ver2 uses DPMI and not GO32 do I still have this ability.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Cheers
