It is indeed. I knew there was something nagging me about that when I read
it a few days ago. The problem with the INT 19 call is that it leaves all
interrupt vectors as they are, which is why the machine usually crashes
shortly after booting when using that. Far safer is a LONG JMP to the BIOS
entry point at FFFF:FFF0 IIRC.

Now if I'd had more coffee to drink this week, I could've remembered that
myself. Oh well...

Try it with IDE and Windows, and you'll make loads of coasters, your game
will chug, and you'll probably find a few new expletives in the process :)
