Well, it is not aware of task switchers, it may have problems with

I added support for emulation of the WBINVD CPU instruction in EMM386. That appears
to be the last of what it needs, as SLOWDOWN was running on my system. Judg

What version of TASM do you use? I haven't had LGDT problems with TASM

Hi!
Don't know how to easy (or not) to implement this feature, but MS-DEBUG
allows to write numeric argument without spaces before: "int3", "int21".
This may make harder to implement CMPXCHG8B instruction, but, if search will
