Thank you for your help in testing. There seems to be a flaw in the method used for the pm to rm to pm transition. In my testing I can find nothing wrong, yet if I run a loop with a bios call the PC will reboot. For example: @@: mov ah, 1 int 16h jmp @B It appears to be caused by the timer int, not by the code but rather too many transitions. I'm going to implement a simple V86 monitor to handle the transitions. Mike Gonta look and see - many look but few see
