SUMMARY
=======
The following information describes why Microsoft Windows does not implement an
INT 15H handler to facilitate multitasking in the presence of a NetBIOS
network.
Windows does not use the INT 15H handler at all. INT 15H is specific to the IBM
PC/AT. Windows will never use an INT 15H handler because it is designed to work
on a number of different OEM machines.
