Yes, there is a problem with Scitech Display Doctor and DR-EMM386 (7),
which you can fix by re-stubbing the Causeway DOS-extender of the
Scitech utilities (these utilities currently use an old version of
Causeway).
The latest version of Causeway is now public and can be downloaded at
"http://www.devoresoftware.com" - this includes a re-stubbing utility,
whose name escapes me at the moment.
