accessing FAT32 partitions
Is there any way to access the hard drives FAT32 partitions(reading sectors)(huge partitions) other than win32 API's.i want to access them in MS-DOS mode.If i have to use new int13h functions will they be portable to other systems with older bios not supporting the function.
While it might be possible to pull off a gross hack like this under Windows 95/98/ME, it most certainly isn't possible on NT, 2000 or XP. Any attempt to call the old DOS BIOS interrupts will cause your program to crash with an illegal operation error.
