muPDF is a Windows program that will (at least its non-graphics
parts) run under Japheth's HX DOS extender, in a powerful enough
machine. Since the minimum requirements to do so are much like

What command.com program do you refer to ?
That I use with FreeDOS (I downloaded it from ftp.ibiblio.org)
is 93963 bytes long and has no UPX signature in it.

Would you please tell how they implement this (ADSL in DOS)

I mean the BIOS in the machine
Marcos:
Please excuse me if I underestimate your knowledge.
Are you sure the BIOS of your computers supports LBA
with the cluster size you choose? Some older machines
(e.g. this) require an specific cluster size in order
to use LBA.

AFAIK, Desqview would run even in a 8088. It did
swap processes and their contexts into and out from

AFAIK, the first part is no surprise, for a CD drive

I used XCDROM and SHSUCDX 3.03D for some months
(since their release) in this computer without problems,
mostly under DRDOS, but a few times also under MSDOS and
FREEDOS. This machine does not have any other O/S; uses
only DOS.
I experimented them lately in another machine, which
uses Windows 98

I only tested it with 4364KB, which is the same size I use under
DR/MS DOS. This is just a value I found to work comfortably for
all my ordinary applications. I may try other values if you think
this is important. BTW, I h
