|What do you mean by this?  In case people get the wrong impression, QEMM CAN
|loadhi device drivers.  You just use loadhi.sys rather than loadhi.com.  Is

Yes. I should clarify and say that, yes, I do LOADHI drivers like
pcnfs.sys, ansi.sys, mouse.sys, etc. QD can not LOADHI sockdrv.sys.
(they said in response to my question) 386Max can (I hear).
