> Does anyone have any ideas on implementing 4 MB paging > in a DJGPP v2 program? Yes, I have looked at adding this into CWSDPMI. If you are interested, you can drop me a message, but in a nutshell, there are some real problems since the granularity of memory isn't as fine, you waste alot (you do have a 64Mb machine, right?) and it causes grief with VCPI providers. I came to the conclusion that supporting a non-pageable version would be a more effective solution.
