> guess would be that Pmode/W and CWSDPMI cannot be used together.

It actually turns out that they work fine together if HIMEM.SYS or
an EMM provider are used.  In "raw" mode pmode/w consumes all the DOS
memory, does not release any, and thus CWSDPMI fails when it tries to
get memory for it's needs.  I don't have a workaround yet.
