During the beta of Windows 95 I was working at a company that had made a DOS extender for Clipper, and we got reports That the apps in 16 bit protected mode did not work. Looking in to it, there was a bug in the 16 bit FAT driver, I think, things are fuzzy from that long ago, which wasn’t used by a lot of things. I actually managed to get a bug report in, talked to the guy working on the driver, and had a build Fedexed to me a couple of days later to verify the fix.
Good times.
