Can I directly access the screen in mode 0x03 (normal text mode) so that
I can write charicters directly to the screen, and if so (or if not for
that matter...) ho do I change the default background/foreground colours
so that I can have different colours all over the place:)

Also, if I can't acces the screen directly (though I can't really see
any reason why not) can I still put stuff on the screen without printf
or whatever?

Any help would really be appreciated...
