** DRIVSRCH.C - public domain by Marty Connelly, Victoria, BC 1992

** Routine checks how many valid disk drives are available on machine,
** both physical and logical drives
*/
/*
** Includes drive letters assigned with DOS SUBST command
**
** Networked drives are left as an exercise as I don't have access
** to them to check.
**
** The routine uses undocumented DOS interrupt 32H.
**
** Compatible with MSC 5 and 6, ZTC++, BC++, other DOS compilers
**
** DS:BX contains the address of the Disk Parameter Block (DPB) for a
** requested drive. If the drive letter at offset 0 of the DPB doesn't
** match the requested drive, then the drive has been SUBST'ed.
