DOS ain't dead

SEEKEXT and enabling unsigned 32-bit DOS int 0x21 fileseeks? (Users)

The Mplayer DOS port will read large movie files even under real DOS if you store said file on a partition with a file system designed to handle such files and not on a FAT16 partition utilizing some undocumented hack. I store large files on NTFS volumes and MPLayer handles them fine as the IFS driver used to access them actually finds what is supposed to be there.
