I had a 386SX motherboard for a few weeks in the summer (to temporarily replace an XT motherboard). I had no problems running Desqview 386 and things running under DV386, such as 1-2-3,Wordperfect 5.0, etc. Of course these were running under DV on the XT as well, but all I had to do to run those programs SIMULTANEOUSLY on the 386, was to use the QEMM driver plus the regular setup. Most of the notes I've seen seem to mention that using Desqview is a major reason for getting a 386. DV386 was the only 386-specific software I had at the time, but it worked on the 386SX.
