Well, the deal was that I sometimes (rarely) boot up DOS without EMS (only XMS), and yet I had been always loading HXLDR32, and it didn't work without EMS plus I couldn't even uninstall it (meh). Not a big deal, though, I eventually remembered I could do this in AUTOEXEC: "if exist EMMXXXX0 lh hxldr32"
