Yes, that's the trouble with standard DJGPP. Mik's version has to carry all code, which exceeds standard DOS functionality, in one binary. Igor's version has Windows/HX DLLs for that.

1) Who else is using HDPMI32 as a TSR?
2) Then please report this to Michael Kostylev directly. It won't change, if you only report that here.
