Help with hardware interrupts

I am writing a Delphi (1.0) application which accesses an ISA bus interface
card. This card can be set up to generate PC interrupts which I require my
application to repond to. While familiar with writing interrupt handlers
for DOS applications, from what I have read, things are not quite the same
under Windows. Microsoft (and Borland) appear to discourage this type of
low level access to the computer hardware, for example Delphi has dropped
GetIntVec and SetIntVec. So should it be done another way?

Any help would be much appreciated.
