OK, a bug - but where? I wouldn't assume it's in HDPMI32. I've seen error messages similar to the one DOS386 showed, in DOS progs running under Windows. Some progs are fussy about which DPMI providers they will work with. How much time do you want to spend making HDPMI32 compatible with every other existing provider?
