I tried this exact same thing months ago and posted here how it didn't work. Now I tried again with SP1, still nothing. What specific program do you get working? Because I tried two programs (DJGPP-compiled and Watcom32/Causeway) and neither works, both report "out of memory". Yes, I put the .DLL in \system32, yes I had admin privileges, yes I tried running the TSR with and without admin privileges, yes I even rebooted, still nothing. So, I dunno how it works for you (or your friend), but it doesn't seem to work for me. I'm open to suggestions.
