I have a XPS gen 3

I want to write a utility that will change the badge color w/o having to boot and run setup. My intention is to allow a color code to be passed as a parameter to the utility to change to different colors.

Maybe have it run this util after certain events i.e. turn red when email waiting or amber when running virus scan ect.

What I need is more information about the bios routines on how this function is performed.

Port  info, INT to call info or routine names actually I have nothing on this topic so any information would be helpful.

anyone know where to get this information?

Or a utility that will change the badge color from a dos prompt or w/o rebooting system.

BTW. I have written bios function utils before (change boot order ect.) so I really just need specifics on this particular bios call.
