You got your arguments wrong.  Please check out the docs for `movedata':
you should have said this: 

   movedata (_my_ds(), image->buffer, _dos_ds, 0xa0000, 32);

Note that you must say "0xA0000", not "0xA000", since that should be a 
linear address, not a segment address.

Why would you need to use `_farpeekb' on a buffer that is already in your
address space?
