   I'm trying to use TD under the newest version of Desqview on a 386
   (running qemm also).  Although the td386 program is not supposed to
   work, and generates an error message when I try it, the normal td or
   td286 should run under desqview (and the manual agrees).  When I run
   either though, after loading a program to be debugged it hangs my PC
   until I press the reset button.  Does anyone have this combination
   working?!

   Thanks.

This problem occurs if you leave the td386.sys driver in your
config.sys.   I believe that the reason for this is that even the
regular debugger (td) tries to use special functions of a 386 if the
driver is installed, but never checks if it can, so fails, badly.
