For a long time, I still had DOS/DV as a resrve, but never had to use it
so now it's forgotten history.

Yes - but with the help of QEMM 386 the memory problem was solved quite
nicely, even though you had to juggle the values a bit.

My first version of DV was 2.2 of 1989 and the last one v2.4 of 1991 and
with QEMM-386 v6.0 of the same year.


Have a good night,
