If you have some version of TurboC, look in the file bios.h. You'll find some great functions. John Fill

Hi Aproorva

You can use fuction "absread " to read and "abswrite" to read and write to different storage devices.You have to pass the storage device as an aurgument.

Hope this is of help to you.
