Windows 3.1, all programs are more recent versions. I don't know
about EMM386 and HIMEM, but Smartdrive underwent mjor revisions
between the release of Dos 5 and Win 3.1. Smartdrive is now an EXE
file run from AUTOEXEC.BAT instead of a SYS from CONFIG.SYS and it
is significantly faster and more reliable.
