I think you should use a long pointer instead of int.
Integer range is 32767 on the +ve and -32768 on the negative. So by using a
long pointer you can access mem locations beyond 32767.

I guess this will be it. Havent read about far pointers, so cant confirm
that,

And moreover, dude! why are you using TC on Windows?? I hate that and most
of the programmers (genuine one's) also hate that.

One thing that I can guarantee is that C programming on Linux, UNIX (any)
or any POSIX compliant OS is more fun. So use the gcc compiler and keep
rocking in the free world.
