How does one kick the 286 chip into protected mode? I'm using TC++ (but
only, as of yet, in TC mode, not TC++ mode), and was hoping to get out
of this segmented architecture via the protected mode. Since I dont
really care if my program will run in the background of a multitasker
or anything, I thought this would be a good solution.
