Talk:Detecting Memory (x86)
Deleting old code
Now that Brendan's manual probing code is here, I'd like to delete the old C manual probing code -- even though "information will be lost".

I'd rather not for just that reason :) - Basically you'll be denying everybody that expects to find a sample in C that code. It's not too bad to have a version in both languages really. - Combuster 06:11, 22 May 2008 (CDT)
Updated the low memory snippet
The old low memory detection snippet using INT 0x12; AH = 0x00 assumed that AH would be set to 0x80 or 0x86 when something went wrong, I don't think this can be true as RBIL doesn't state this and as AX itself should contain the size. If somebody doesn't like my assembly style, then he/she's free to change it. If someone doesn't agree with me on the 0x80/0x86 part, then could he/she please explain why.
