    Will change OperandSize from 16-bit to 32-bit if CS.D=0, or from 32-bit to 16-bit if CS.D=1. 67h: AddressSize override. Will change AddressSize from 16-bit to 32-bit if CS.D=0, or from 32-bit to 16-bit if CS.D=1. The 80386 also introduced the two new segment registers FS and GS as well as the x86 control, debug and test registers.

  3. IA-32 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IA-32

    The primary defining characteristic of IA-32 is the availability of 32-bit general-purpose processor registers (for example, EAX and EBX), 32-bit integer arithmetic and logical operations, 32-bit offsets within a segment in protected mode, and the translation of segmented addresses to 32-bit linear addresses. The designers took the opportunity ...

    Standard PC BIOS is limited to a 16-bit processor mode and 1 MB of addressable memory space, resulting from the design based on the IBM 5150 that used a 16-bit Intel 8088 processor. [8] [34] In comparison, the processor mode in a UEFI environment can be either 32-bit (IA-32, AArch32) or 64-bit (x86-64, Itanium, and AArch64).

    The 32-bit VxD message server (MSGSRV32) starts MPREXE.EXE, which is responsible for loading the network logon client (such as Client for Microsoft Networks, Microsoft Family Logon or Windows Logon). When a user is logging on to Windows, the startup sound is played, the shell (usually EXPLORER.EXE ) is loaded from the [boot] section of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension

    32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows support PAE if booted with the appropriate option. According to Microsoft Technical Fellow Mark Russinovich, some drivers were found to be unstable when encountering physical addresses above 4GB. [16] The following table shows the memory limits for 32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows:

    The PDP-11/44 had an Intel 8085 as a console processor; [42] the VAX-11/780, the first member of Digital's VAX line of 32-bit superminicomputers, had an LSI-11-based console processor, [43] and the VAX-11/730 had an 8085-based console processor. [44] These console processors could boot the main processor from various storage devices.

  8. Windows 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10

    Windows 10 is the last version of Microsoft Windows that supports 32-bit processors (IA-32 and ARMv7-based), the last non-IoT edition to officially lack a CPU whitelist [30] and support BIOS firmware, [31] [32] and the last version to officially support systems with TPM 1.2 or without any TPM at all.

  9. Windows on Windows - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_on_Windows

    In computing, Windows on Windows (commonly referred to as WOW) [1] [2] [3] is a discontinued compatibility layer of 32-bit versions of the Windows NT family of operating systems since 1993 with the release of Windows NT 3.1, which extends NTVDM to provide limited support for running legacy 16-bit programs written for Windows 3.x or earlier.
