One more DPMILD32 issue:

;*** load image in memory, dont resolve anything
;*** bx=file handle
;*** esi=IMAGE_NT_HEADER
;*** the object table is located behind the NT_HEADERS
;--- returns with C on errors in binary

LoadImage proc uses edi ebp es

if ?INT41SUPPORT
                sub     esp, sizeof D386_Device_Params
                @loadesp ebp
                mov     [ebp].D386_Device_Params.DD_logical_seg,0
                mov     dword ptr [ebp].D386_Device_Params.DD_name,0
                mov     word ptr [ebp].D386_Device_Params.DD_name+4,0
                mov     edi, [esi.MZHDR.pExeNam - sizeof MZHDR]
                lea     edi, [edi + esi - sizeof MZHDR]
                call    skippath
                mov     dword ptr [ebp].D386_Device_Params.DD_sym_name,edi
                mov     word ptr [ebp].D386_Device_Params.DD_sym_name+4,ds
endif

What is this "?INT41SUPPORT" supposed to controll ? I don't see it declared anywhere ? Maybe always false, a relict ready for kick-out ?

True, but now I've done 99% of the huge work so the 3 trivial fixes can be applied into DPMILD32
