Hi Justin, thanks for your help offer!
Win 3.11 can only run in 386 multitasked mode,
386 ENHANCED mode
it would be interesting to get
fresh test results (kernel 2035, new himem or maybe ms himem, better
no emm386, maybe use DOS=LOW and a non-XMS-Swap FreeCOM for the test
as well) for the 286 mode of Windows 3.0 / 3.1 (use WIN /S to start
in this mode - you may want to use other "enable compatibility stuff"
options of WIN as well, not sure).
you mean running the STANDARD mode, that can also be run in a 386
In 286 mode, Windows can run on a 286 (you guessed that, right?).
Aitor suggested that it only runs one DPMI task at a time then,
swapping the other stuff to XMS.
Well, what I suggest is that "Windows" (KRNL386.EXE) runs as a DPMI app,
which is what it is actually, a DPMI app. Under a DPMI app you can run
other DPMI apps, and have some multitasking using WSWAP, similar to the
DSWAP of DOSSHELL.
