It's not, its pointed from GDT. But it's created by my program not the OS or is it DPMI call?

OK I got it (250 MB ISO for a few .h files muhehe, but contains also some vdd examples). MinGW has some DDK headers but not complette.

But I'm still not sure about the prototype. VDM_MODE is defined as enum but what is the size of enum? As I looked for it's not a standard but dependent on compiler. Some uses 32bit int, some uses smallest possible type. But I need to know real size which ntvdm.exe takes to make proper import of this function.
