However without CWSDPMI the > program runs under plain dos perfectly. There is a fix for this - you must set one of the "flag bits" using CWSPARAM to pre-allocate the page table memory. PMODE/W is being somewhat unfriendly and allocating all the DOS memory to itself. This can limit the amount of virtual memory you can access among other things.
