I successfully tested in QEMU 0.10.5, where it also starts within the
blink of an eye using CWSDPMI. Last version (1.90-t5 Beta) is available
from .

The version on Simtel.Net is 16-bit only.

Then you did something very wrong.

Now I tested for you in BOCHS ( !!! 100x slower than natively !!! )
with 8 MiB RAM:

It WORKS VERY WELL, starts in 2 SECONDS, and can display a small BMP.

Also I know what you did wrong and how to fix:

DELETE CWSDPMI.EXE
DELETE C:\DOS\CWSDPMI.EXE
DELETE D:\DGJPP\BIN\CWSDPMI.EXE
DELETE D:\BLAH\CWSDPMI.EXE
DELETE D:\PROGRAMS\SYSTEM\CWSDPMI.EXE
HDPMI32 -r

DPMI host ??? Some faulty EMM386 ???

For me it isn't slow at all :-) ... I didn't test the memory requirements :-|

Re: [Freedos-user] PNG viewer

[iw2evk]

you can use this in conjunction ox HX extender (www.japheth.de)

http://www.advsys.net/ken/util/kpic.exe

Ken's PICture viewer. Supports: JPG,PNG,GIF,TGA,PCX,BMP. View all files in a
directory or files inside a .ZIP. (no need to extract first!) Example: kpic
/zduke3d_hrp.zip *.png *.jpg. Select any DirectX mode on the command line.
Example: kpic /1024x768 *.* KPIC allows you to scroll and zoom quickly (hold
mouse button). It supports a fancy 4x4 filter (uses MMX code) to interpolate
samples cleanly when you use the zoom feature. This is a high quality filter
- most 3D accelerators use bilinear interpolation which is only a 2x2 filter
:) There are 3 interpolation modes; use TAB to select between them. (Mode
0:4x4 when stopped/nearest when moving, Mode 1:4x4 always, Mode 2:nearest
always). (See PNGOUT.HTM for a more complete description of supported image
formats)

 This is available from any Simtel mirror /simtelnet/msdos/graphics
directory. IMO this DISPLAY is an overkill if one needs just a 
PNG viewer, because it is an editor for a score of graphics 
file formats (including PNG), uses much memory and is very
slow (45s just to load on my computer). I would recommend 
instead PICTVIEW, freeware available from www.pictview.com
