Thats what development programs are for.. there have been multiple releases of alpha and betas of it to the developers along with msc to program for it…. as for your 'pmode' kicking it into 'flat 32bit mode'… its simply a 16 bit program acting like a 32bit program.. you do realize its running on a 16 bit os dont you? <and calling it 16 bit is pushing it> things run much faster when actualy compiled for 32bits then when they emulate 32bits… win '95 is a full 32bits.. down to the core… you have to put the code in, but you dont have to put the code in for lots of other things like direct access to 4 gigs of memory <yes… 4 gigs.. no more 64k segments.. no more ems no more bs "dos extenders"> actualy no… as i stated.. you can write it as a full screen windows app, not to mention '32bit' <extended> programs run faster under windows then they do run under your 16bit dos… dont matter how you mess with it.. 32 bit is 32 bit.. and 16 bit is still 16 bit.. even witha '32bit' extender…. <i can and do run most demos <that dont force me to get rida memory managers and such> in a window faster then i used to under dos 5.0> <oh.. and for those of you that feel the need to program in that the program wont run if theres emm386 or such in memory.. stop it.. with win'95 dos… theres no difference in speed if you have nothing loaded or emm386, qemm, and 10 other programs that supposedly slow the demos down….> Rob
