I had a 386SX motherboard for a few weeks in the summer (to temporarily
replace an XT motherboard).  I had no problems running Desqview 386 and
things running under DV386, such as 1-2-3,Wordperfect 5.0, etc.  Of
course these were running under DV on the XT as well, but all I had to do
to run those programs SIMULTANEOUSLY on the 386, was to use the QEMM driver
plus the regular setup.  Most of the notes I've seen seem to mention that
using Desqview is a major reason for getting a 386.  DV386 was the only
386-specific software I had at the time, but it worked on the 386SX.
