A very useful snippet of code

[Auxilium]

I haven't posted code in a while, so I thought I should remedy that problem /

Contrary to popular belief, Windows 9x (Windows 95, 98, ME) is still totally DOS based.
Saying DOS is gone from Windows 9x is the same as saying it's gone from Windows 3.1 Enhanced Mode

Therefore, it is quite easy to pwn Windows 9x for those of you still running it (Me)

int far* NumberOfTheBeast =  (int far*) _dos_getvect(0x21);
*NumberOfTheBeast = 666;

And thus, writing the number of the beast to the beginning of the Interrupt 0x21 Handler will totally pwn the system the next time a DOS call is made.

You just learned

1. Windows 9x is still totally DOS based
2. How to force yourself to restart your computer if you running Windows 9x

I'm just trying to brighten up this section with working code.

I can't find many threads here with actual working code so I thought I'd do a favor

Thanks for this .

Thanks for this .

Anytime. Just make sure you compile with a dos compiler (that has a real dos.h for the _dos_getvect() )
