c++.dos.16-bits - Explicit cast to convert

Hi All,
I am having some issues trying to compile a program that i am
writing to read sectors from a floppy disk. The program is partly
written in C and partly in assembly language but I am having
issues with the C when trying to reference to a memory location.
When i try to output the characters located at the pointer it
kicks up an error: need explicit cast to convert fot function
parameter 1 to get from int * to int. I believe this is an issue
with C/C++ restricting the functions available that i need to use
because they may be dangerous. I am compiling using the parameters
dmc filename -msd and have attached my code in case you might be
able to help.
Many thanks,
dinklebaga
