Looking for Header bios.h

[sweep123]

I was trying to use the code (see link below), but need to have the header file bios.h.

Does anyone know where to find it?

As far as I know, bios_disk etc functions was declared in bios.h header many years ago in early (16-bit) versions of MS C/C++ compilers. There is no such header in VC++ 6.0 (or Win SDK). The bios_disk() et al are incompatible with current Windows environment.
It seems say bios.h good bye...

In Win32 programs, use the CreateFile API call to gain access to the serial port.

Scroll down to "Communications Resources"

OK thanks for the info.

Will drop this bit of code and use CreateFile etc.
