The problem is, whenever I try to copy memory to this new selector using the segment returned from the call, I get either a protection fault (if it compiles), or an error at compile time in my code. The error at compile time has something like unexpected letter after %-... Can anybody help me with this??? All I need (even code!!! :) is to know how to do, say a rep movsl, from my malloc'd memory, to the graphics memory. Any help appreciated here, cause I have only been using djgpp for about 4 days...
