INT 2F - MS Windows - VADMAD - GET API(Application Program[ming] Interface) The defined set of calls which a program may make to interact with or request services of the operating system or environment under which it is running. Because the inputs and outputs of the calls are well-defined, a program using the API can continue using the identical calls even if the internal organization of the program providing the API changes. ENTRY POINT AX = 1684h BX = 0444h (virtual device ID for VADMAD device) (see #02642) ES:DI = 0000h:0000h Return: ES:DI -> VxDA virtual device driver for Windows 3.x or 95. So called because nearly all of the Windows 3.0 drivers had names of the form "VdeviceD". See also device driver.
