Hi Josh, This sounds like the sort of thing that might be possible with a DOS interrupt call. Have you checked out a nearby copy of Ralph Brown's Interrupt List? I find the HTML'ised version at: http://www.ctyme.com/rbrown.htm very useful. It's where I learnt how to make low level sector reads and writes to floppy and IDE drives. As for keyboards this might be a start: http://www.ctyme.com/intr/cat-023.htm Hope this helps.
