what course are you taking? computer history? Why do you have to use 13h? Is it just to learn how to interact with hardware, or are your teachers really behind on technology?

13H is 2d graphic mode used on for example the SNES

I don't know about that, but mode 13 is a simple graphics mode (320x200x8, it doesn't even have the ratio 4:3). It is called mode 13 since you set register AX to 13 when calling the interupt to enter it.
Since the SNES doesn't use the same processor as a PC, I doubt the SNES use it. Could be wrong though...

it may have a graphics mode you have to set to 13, but I doubt if it is the same res (320x200x8).

I used to use 13h and I hated it. That is what I used b4 Allegro.
