Dear Kemp,
You can  download  CWSDPMI.EXE for free as 
<v2misc/csdpmi4b.zip > from your Simtel site or mirror.
In my experience it is great, it supports virtual memory(paging) and 
you can configure it as you wish using cwsparam.exe.

If your program does a lot of interrupt handling and mode switching 
you might try getting PMODE/DJ another free DPMI server wich 
can be bound to your EXE. It is a RING 0 server so it is faster than 
CWSDPMI.EXE. It however doesn't support paging.

CWSDPR0.EXE wich comes with cwsdpmi is also faster than 
cwsdpmi.exe but it doesn't support paging.
