I tried using it under 6.22 when I had it, and it took some memory away. The best way to maximize memory for your system, without third-party solutions, is to go through your system files, line by line, and change them around, rebooting and doing a memory check to see what is the most effective. Also, do a little homework. Can you add a devicehigh line here or there. Is there a switch himem.sys or emm386 that can help you out? A little homework will give you the greatest amount of memory. I repeat, MEMMAKER sucks. Delete it and save yourself some space.
