Variables

vmstub

Dim Shared vmstub As Byte Ptr

contains the location where the real mode stub is located

Functions

InitializeV8086

Function InitializeV8086() As Integer

configures the environment to make Virtual8086 mode bios calls

In

none

Out

return

1 on success, 0 if there were problems

RunInterrupt

Function RunInterrupt( ax as integer,
cx as integer,
bx as integer ) As Byte

Calls a VBE interrupt

In

ax	the value for ax. Normally this is the function
cx	the value for cx
bx	the value for bx

Out

return

1 on success, 0 when a privilege error occurred
