One way to do this is by setting the old vector on the address of an other interrupt number. A disadvantage of this method is that you don't always know which interrupt is free and you can run out of all possible interrupts. So is there an other way, from TP4 for instance: jmp oldvector (with inline code) doesn't succeed. thanks in advance, Cor
