Quick reply (until/if somebody more experienced answers). IIRC for Jason Burgon's GVFM, you have to load HDPMI16 first, then perhaps HDPMI32. Or you could try a host that supports both (e.g. DPMIONE). Win16 used 16-bit DPMI internally, I think, but others (e.g. CWSDPMI) never bothered supporting that.
