   The program writes the directory listing to screen buffer using   
   es=0xb800 then proceeds to set up the arrow keys and read the cluster   
   number bytes it has written to screen memory - all using es=0xb800.   
      
   ds=0x1000   
   es=0xb800 is screen buffer   
   gs=0x1200 is buffer with root directory   
      
   Maybe the screen buffer is unavailable for reading? Is that possible?
