Yes, I got the same. I tested WIN32, DOS32 and DOS64 version on Core i7-2600K and all are able to run. Except as you noticed the 64b version cannot run under V86 mode that is in my case a big disadvantage why not to use it. But it seems to not be a bug but a limitation of D3X extender. Any of other DOS64 programs don't run under V86 too but it runs under plain DOS or XMS+UMBPCI. As we know from 64-bit OSes it problematic/impossible a coexistence of V86 and 64-bit long mode. It may be possible to completly save a v86 state before switching to long mode and then restore it after switching back but there wouldn't be v86 functions while run in long mode...
