I want to create a delay in my bootsector code that I am working on. I have a previous example from someone but I dont know how to use it. Could someone give me a example or two with this code.

Delay for certain amount of time:

mov ah,86h
;CX:DX = #of ¦Ìsecs to delay
int 15h


 
seems this service sets a byte in mem (address set on INT time) to 01 when timer is over. just check this byte

i used this in my own MBR code
