I am more than aware that far pointers are not used in protected mode.
But i was wondering how to access location's in memory using the flat
model. I am in the proccess of converting old 16bit code and it's for 
graphics so there are many references to points in far memory. I am 
particularly concerned with finding the old video mode. I can set the mode
and write to it so this is'nt a display problem

Thanks in advance ....
