Extended Memory 386

[skloo77]

How to get it installed?

Are you referring to memmaker? as in dos?

[Sephiroth]

in your config.sys you would add a line that is something along the lines of

DEVICE=C:\Blah\himen.sys
DEVICE=C:\Blah\emm386.exe

I'm not sure on that though, sooooo long since I've used DOS, lol

This will not only allocate Extended memory (while not in Windows) but also Expanded memory, some old type of memory allocation nobody uses anymore. Expanded memory map a windows of 64Kb upper memory (memory between the 640Kb and 1 Mb segment) over the Expanded memory, and move the windows around over it as you need other peaces of memory.

To get rid of this Expanded memory add NoEMS to the DEVICE=C:\Blah\emm386.exe line, this will give you 64Kb of upper memory witch can be used to load TSR programs (Teminate and Stay Resident) if you also add the line DOS=High,UMB to you config.sys

Does this makes any sence at all?

Oh yeah, don't forget to copy himem.sys and emm386.exe to the C:\Blah folder.
