You mean this?

ftp://ftp.sac.sk/pub/sac/pack/imp110d.zip

There's also a console Win32 one, maybe it works under HX?

ftp://ftp.sac.sk/pub/sac/pack/imp112.exe

(Disclaimer: I never heavily used either.)

As expected.

It shouldn't have problems unless it did something rare that was
DOS/4GW-specific only. Try to do similar operation directly from
cmdline first. If it doesn't work even there, try a different extender
(Causeway, D3X). Oops, forgot to state the obvious, make sure to use
latest version (not old 7.x version like still included as default in
OpenWatcom), which is 9.1.2:

Keep us informed.

BTW, BTTR's Forum is probably a still better place to (also) ask about
HDPMI since Japheth frequents there.
