Yes, it does use protected mode in real dos, I had errors with that before
(caught sigterm blah blah and kill), but setting DPMI fixed that, now its 
just the memory errors. When I run the dos "mem" command, it shows all
memory as avail.
        
        But if this is the case (error the result of trying to use
protected mem), is there a way to fool the proggy, or possibly convince
dosemu to use the native dos emm386.exe and himem.sys (from dos 7 or
whatever is with win98) instead of the internal mem manager of dosemu?
(Mind you I have experimented with this a little, but I get errors saying
there is allready a mem manager or whatever).

Thank you for your time
