I have written a small, simple hex editor.  It works properly
in a DOS box under Win98, compiled either with DJGPP or with
Turbo C 2.01.  In WinXP, the 16-bit Turbo C version works,
but the DJGPP version displays a screenful of garbage.  I
suspect the problem is in the BIOS video interrupt interface.
Is this a known problem?  Does the latest DJGPP work properly
with the Int 10h functions?
