I need to use 256 colour VESA mode (e.g. 105h) Everething would be ok, but I can't change palette Sad
I was trying functions 1012h and 4f09h (int 10h) which returns 00h code, so everething should be ok... but it isn't Sad Palette stays the same. Do I use wrong function?
I don't attach source, because I have to write it in TASM Sad Program is runing in WinXP, but target system is DOS.
Thanks for all sugestions.

Perhaps the simplest solution (at least in my opinion) is to directly write your palette into VGA registers, I was using this method in the kelvar project (it's one of the DOS examples on the fasm's website), look into SYSTEM\VIDEO.INC file for "set_palette" routine.

Thx. That was what I need Smile
But I have one more question. Could you say where I can find something more about controling VESA video cards by ports?
