What hardware? That of course needs an 80386 or newer CPU.
Another thing is any drivers loaded in config.sys and autoexec.bat
have to be compatible with 386 enhanced mode. The OAK CD-ROM driver
and later MS-DOS MSCDEX should be compatible. IIRC old sound card
drivers were pretty bad about being 32bit incompatible. Some mouse
drivers also had the problem.
Windows 3.11 (OEM release between 3.1 and WFWG 3.11) has either 32bit
disk or 32bit file access, I can never remember which. Either way it's
useless because both are needed (which only WFWG 3.11 has) to do any
speed improving. 32bit incompatible drivers in config.sys and
autoexec.bat can prevent both using 386 enhanced mode and 32bit disk
and file access.

Hi:
I can't seem to get Windows 3.1 to run in 386 mode, is this a
limitation for FreeDos?
