I am wondering exactly when (how often) must Windows 3.0 switch back to real mode. From a 286 machine, I understand(I may be wrong) that to switch to real mode actually requires a reset of the CPU. If this is true, how is it done. (I have heard something about the keyboard controller???) Another quick question I have is that I have noticed that alot more of the windows now have title bars and close menus. In particular, alot of the dialog boxes. Is this a change in the regular dialog box type, or is this just a change in style of Windows 3.0 programs. Finally, is the himem.sys the same one that is used in Windows 2.1 or is this not even needed? My $0.02 worth...Maybe Less.... Dean Wallwey
