Hm, yes, every now and then this board's admin loves to delete all posts, might very well be that he also decides to delete all registered users for some reasons. But I'm pretty sure that he's not so "unwise" like the "Evil DoctoR" admin who usually fought all users reporting bugs (like NTOSKRNL, me ... and Lucho! IIRC). But why talking about things of the past, in the meantime dear Udo has banned the rest of the users as well.

No. DOS was not designed for multitasking, but it exposes an API to make the code reusable. So a carefully written TSR might use DOS, even inside an ISR. But low-level drivers using a static local stack - like UDMA - makes this impossible. Furthermore, there are hooks/call-outs defined for int 13h drivers (int 15h, ax=9000h) to support multitasking, but UDMA doesn't implement them either.

MS-DOS forever!
