If so, you can get this vector, and have your tsr execute a far jump.. and the end of the routine, there will be an iret instruction, so dos will jump back to the application rather than back to your tsr..... Also, I believe that the interrupt hierarchy makes it impossible to interrupt a disk read...you may want to check on this though..... lance..
