Ideally, it would require applications specifically designed for 64-bit 
DOS. Sounds like daydreaming, but let's see what happens.

FreeDOS is 16-bit os, FreeDOS-32 is 32-bit os and this project is not 
called FreeDOS but some other DOS and seems to be about a 64-bit DOS-like 
os. Just to compare, regular version of Windows XP is 32-bit os and there 
is also experimental 64-bit version of available.

You will find 32-bit FreeDOS project here:
