Thank you for replaying my question Jes. > Are you sure your system supports memory to memory transfers. I seem to > remeber having read some HP Vectra manual, which stated that i/o to i/o > and memory to memory transfers were not supported on that system. And I > think that HP usually keeps to the standard, so I am afraid, but not > sure, that your system also does not support memory to memory transfers. But in my sources memory to memory transfer using DMA(Intel 8237A or somting like that) is possible it takes two channels 0(read) and 1(write). Using port 8H (comand register) first bit (less significant) enables emory to memory transfer. It also supports constant address for channel 0 to fill memory by the same byte. So if some one knows how to start transfer(I know where to send DREQ bit for channel but may be I have to confirm request in manual it is named DACK)? Bye. Sponsored by Wrox Press - www.wrox.com.
