running in english mode (chev us), dosv is for all practical
purposes msdos 5.0.  running in japanese mode, you must not do
hardware video writes.  the basic documentation is piss poor.
even if you can read japanese, it won't help you.  if you have
the programmers manuals, try finding a japanese native on campus,
preferably someone in computer science.  i read japanese and may
be able to answers ~limited~ questions.
