Whilst researching further DOS SYS drivers to test with. I have just become aware (/reminded) that PC Mag also released a SYS loader called DRVLOAD:

First Published in PC Magazine November 9, 1993 (Utilities)

Source to the above info. For more info see the reference "Buried software utilities in Simtel and 'pcmag' archives by Dr. W. Curtiss Priest".

If searching be aware there are several programs called DRVLOAD but unrelated to DOS device drivers.
