Hi.

I am getting this:

C:\>fdtest


The shell is about to be terminated, though, this is
forbidden (usually by enabling the "/P" option).
You must reboot the system or, if this shell runs in
a multitasking environment, terminate this process/task manually.

when I run this:

C:\devel\pdos\pdpclib>type fdtest.asm
.model small

.stack 1000h

.code

top:

mov ah, 044h
mov al, 01h
mov bx, 0
;mov dx, 081h
mov dx, 0h

int 021h

mov ah, 04ch
int 021h

end top


I don't get that problem on a Win 95 command prompt.

Using 1 or 81h gives the same result.

The code seems to be conforming to this:

http://www.ctyme.com/intr/rb-2820.htm

Apologies if this is a simple and obvious coding error
on my part. I was thinking of posting it to a different
newsgroup first.

Note that the original real code does a get device
info first, and has a device information word of 0,
but I may have stuffed that test up.

Hoping for some guidance.

This is Freedos 1.3 and compilation is as below.

Thanks. Paul.
