I have been working a lot with the debugging version of WIN386.EXE that
comes with the DDK.  (It's 922K long, very slow, but has lots of .? debugging
features that aren't in the other versions.)

But it doesn't run DOS boxes for me.  I get a "System Error: Incorrect system
version; reinstall the 386 enhanced mode of Windows." box, and when I click
on OK I get the messages
VMDA_Exit with no VMDA_RWSelector
VMDA_Exit with NO addresses set
on the debugging terminal.

Any clues?  I've tried it on a variety of DX and SX clones, as well as a PS/2
model 70, while tweaking all sorts of parameters, to no effect.
