This is likely to be a familiar sort of message, but here goes:

I've got a 386/25 w/ cache & 4 megs that don't like QEMM 4.2 nor
Windows/386 (2.01).  I've tried everything I could logically find
in the manuals, here is what happens.

Upon bootup, QEMM displays its message and then the machine freezes.
Windows/386 runs all windows apps ok, but as soon as I try running one of
the COMMANDx.PIF files, it dumps out to DOS.  Samething if I try double
clicking on a normal exe or com file.

So, this is pretty much a call for your secret tricks with both QEMM and
W/386 (I know I ought to upgrade to 2.1, but this is what I'm working
with right now).  Anything you know that is undocumented (even if it
isn't relevant) or is pretty neat about either of those programs, or
DESQview 2.24 for that matter, please share via e-mail.

Please e-mail, volume in this group is too much.
Please no messages about "Send me what you find out", I'LL SUMMARIZE.

Thank you very much.
