| Under DPMI hosts, the major version number is returned in DH and the minor version number is returned in DL. There are two decimal digits for the minor version number with the least-significant digit representing the revision number of the minor version number. Under DPMI version 0.9 hosts, DH is returned as 0, and DL is returned as decimal 90 (5AH). In hypothetical DPMI version 2.3, DH would be returned as 2 and DL would be returned as 30 (1EH). | Under DPMI hosts, the major version number is returned in DH and the minor version number is returned in DL.
