	OK, I haven't tried it under CWSDPMI, but under Win95, using "__dpmi_int" is
very ... unpleasent.  The direct 'int' just quickly closes the box, the
"__dpmi_int" locks your machine for 5 seconds, then displays a dialog box
which you have to click to close the box.

 you would have to do is use the Transfer Buffer.  You should
look up BIOS in the faq.
