Believe it or not, Int 19h is not he way to go. It will stimulate a warm
boot, but it is not very safe. It doesn't do some of the shutdown work
necessary For some applications, and the preferred method is to set the Word
at location 40:72 and to jump to $FFFF:0.
Here are my Procedures For doing reboots from a Program:
