DOS ain't dead

An universal way how to flush disk cache? (Developers)

Hi,
I updated my simple pwrdown utility to support latest intel chipset series 5x and 6x. I'd like also improve it to flush disk cache. Is there some universal way how to do it? Some DOS call? Or do I need exec(cachexxx /flush) for different cache types?

DOS gives me freedom to unlimited HW access.
