Re: Does it perform disk io in real mode when hiberna ting?

Well I suppose, but this is not exactlu a DOS TSR, is it? It would have to
be more like a custom boot loader program.

Because, even on these “modern” operating systems, it is the
only way to implement full disk (sector level) encryption (at
least if you want to include the boot drive). And it’s not
DOS at all, it’s the BIOS that’s being hooked.
