Here is a fast way to write a screen in mode 13h
The amount of screen to fill can be adjusted by altering ECX
long* data;

data = (long*)image->buffer;
__asm__ __volatile__ ("pushw %%es\n //save ES for proper restoring
                movl $0xa0000h, %%edi\n //set the dos protected offset
                movw %0, %%es\n //move the selector
                movl %1, %%esi\n //set the source offset, DS is already
set
                movl $16000, %%ecx\n //loop 16000 times for 16000 long
transfers
                cld\n //set direction to forward
                rep\n //repeat 
                movsl\n //transfers from DS:ESI to ES:EDI 16000 times
                popw %%es\n" //restore ES
                :
                : "g" (_dos_ds), "g" (data)
                : "cx", "di", "si" //clobbered registers
        );
