Message-ID: <111@dalcsug.UUCP> Date: 19 Sep 88 23:22:20 GMT Reply-To: redman@dalcsug.UUCP (REDMAN) Organization: Math, Stats & CS, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada Lines: 13 HP 150 microcomputers are not IBM compatible. They do, however, run MS-DOS 2.xx. Most Terminate-and-Stay-Resident programs for the IBM PC use the low-level BIOS routines for activation. But these aren't well known for the HP 150. Does anyone have any ideas about the internals of the 150? The Programmer's Reference Manual doesn't help. Is this information available anywhere? p.s. Doesn't Microsoft require some sort of common interface between its BDOS and the manufacturer's BIOS? What do other PC-INcompatibles use? redman@dalcsug.uucp {uunet|utai|watmath}|dalcs|dalcsug|redman
