The 80386 COFF executables now run. Now I advance to the next problem and find that I have a file with type: Microsoft a.out separate pure segmented word-swapped V2.3 V3.0 386 sma ll model executable When I try to run this, I get a message Exec format error. Wrong Architecture. Is there a way to convert the binary file format into something more appropriate that the emulator can handle? Thanks!
