They check presence of DPMI server in memory. If there is any (like resident HDPMI32 or running Windows98) the existing one is used. Otherwise is used the CWSDPMI.
If you want you can rename HDPMI32.EXE to CWSDPMI.EXE and use it in place of the original to ensure to be loaded.

Nor Blocek nor Kasmar use any realmode-prorectmode API translation (except INT31h calls of course) so don't worry that it will not be compatible.
