I have found that BIOS information location IIRC is at 0xffff:0x0005.
Anyone of you ever tried?

What about in Linux, can you through me some sample code. Salem, can you tell me if I will be able to get serial number of any devices like
scsi hard disk / main board ? As you will see me asked at another thread.
Copy Protection using Serial Numbers (SCSI Disk / Processor / BIOS / Mainboard)
#/sbin/hdparm -i /dev/hda
Provides information on Hard Disk Drive /dev/hda including the serial number.
Do you have any idea of getting those serial numbers using C?
Well, ask in the Linux programming board, your question is plataform-specific.Quote:

#define NO_DEV 0xffff

#define ATAPI_DEV 0x0001
what will be for scsi hard disk.

I know what I'm going to do. Anyway, thanks for reminder :)Quote:
