INT 10 - Chips & Technologies Extended BIOS(Basic Input/Output System) A set of standardized calls giving low-level access to the hardware. The BIOS is the lowest software layer above the actual hardware and serves to insulate programs (and operating systems) which use it from the details of accessing the hardware directly. - GET LAPTOP DISPLAY STATUS {#idx5430}

INT 13 - DISK - GET DRIVE PARAMETERS (PCIBM PC,XT286IBM PC XT/286,CONVIBM Convertible,PSIBM PS/2, any model,ESDI(Enhanced Small Device Interface) A disk drive interface type which was briefly popular before IDE took over. An ESDI drive can transfer data between the drive and controller at 10, 15, or 20 megabits per second, which is faster than an MFM or RLL controller but slower than what is possible with an IDE or SCSI drive. See also IDE.,SCSI(Small Computer Systems Interface) A system-independent expansion bus typically used to connect hard disks, tape drives, and CD-ROMs to a computer. A host adapter connects the SCSI bus to the computer's own bus. See also ESDI, IDE.) {#idx8549}
