386swat allows to debug ring 0 protected-mode applications. SI for DOS, AFAIK, is meant for real-mode/v86-mode applications only, comparable to Borlands TD386.

386swat is, theoretically, the most powerful debugger ( since it can even intrude a v86-monitor program ), but IMO was too unstable ( and won't run at all on newer machines ).

I used MS wdeb386 to debug hdpmi in the 1990s, because - despite the 'w' in its name - it can debug "any" ring0 protected-mode program.

MS-DOS forever!
