It just installs a handler for INT 10h/AX=4F15h (VESA DDC function).
In my notebook, the 'display stretching' option (extremely ugly, BTW,
so I prefer these black stripes; modern displays are much better at
'stretching' than my old DSTN LCD) is turned on/off in BIOS setup.

BTW, Joe, does your notebook also boot with A20 line enabled?
(Could you try if DR-DOS HIMEM.SYS gives you a warning?)
