	I just got an 387 emulator. It lets me load windows, but it is
not possible to run a DOS program that makes use of it from within
windows.(i.e if i use windows the dos program won't "find" the emulator)
Leaving windows I am able to use any dos program that needs -387 without 
any problems (and that is without rebooting or enabeling the emulator again).

Loading from inside Widows gives me too an UAE!
