How well does it behave with various (J-) EMM386? I didn't have a look on the error. >> 2) Here's a screenshot of the main window of MSD: >> https://winuxinfocenter.de/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/msd1.png > > That lists: BIOS string, base/EMS/XMS size, VGA string, network, > kernel version, mouse version, joystick, drive letters, printer > and serial ports, Win 3.x, IRQ, TSR, drivers.

There was some official download from Microsoft once. Search for, e.g, "GA0363.EXE", if you want to have closer look. >> I prepared some screenshots: https://www.bttr-software.de/tmp/infoplus/ > > BIOS string, CPU ID, RAM ID, MEM, graphics ID, graphics modes, > keyboard and mouse, parallel and serial ports, sound, DOS info, > "multiplex programs", environment variables, device drivers, > DOS and BIOS drive info, partition table, boot drive info, CMOS > info, TSR and drivers, "alternate multiplex", memory managers.
