VCPI (Virtual Control Program Interface) is not supported in Windows
NT. In order to do so on a 386 or 486-based computers, control of the
system page tables would have to be given to the application violating
system security. On MIPS-based machines, only 286 emulation is
available, which precludes the existence of system page tables.
