For me too. And then INT $31/$400 returns 3 ... yeah

??? In DOS ? For me it perfectly worked with both DOS/32A and HDPMI32 ... BTW, the "XP" machine returns (in DOS) CPU=$F, and not 6 ... Wilamette rulez

COOL. Someone should repeat the test with Loonix ... would be interesting ... OTOH it might rise big trouble ... since it possibly would bring up the final evidence that Loonix will never boot into anything below 400 MHz or 128 MiB ... and thus is much more CPU and memory hoggy than "Windows" - fully against the claims of some hard-core FSF/GNU geeks criticizing Vi$ta because of its excessive system requirements and CPU/memory hogging
