Well, check mail today evening.

OK I simplified code that input params are stored directly to ECX,(EDX,EAX) then far call and then reading it back. It works well but still when I pushal/popal around the code it crashes :P

BTW I tried to play with code under WinXP VDM. I can read GDTR and LDTR, I can allocate LDT descriptor, I can set descriptor's base and limit along GDTR values, but when I try to read some data (movedata or farpeekb) via selector of this descriptor it crashes. How does NT protect reading of GDT? My code has PL=3 and my LDT decriptor I'm acessing has also DLP=3 so this should be OK. Is it some paging magic here? Or does CPU have some flag to protect GDT against all PL>0 code?
