HELP !

I've just installed DESQview/X on a Compaq Prolinea 486 and I have
encountered some problems. namely that If I try to open anything other
than a DOS window I get a "Not Enough Memory" box appears in the top
corner. 

Because the machine is not a REAL Compaq the switches "NCF RAM" have to 
be added to the QUEMM entry in the CONFIG.SYS file or dvx will not work
 at all.

The machine has 4Mb of memory, I installed the same Xview on an 8Mb machine
and it works fine. (This machine was not a Compaq)

All I want to know is 

1) Should it work OK with 4Mb. I cannot open ANY application.

2) Has anybody had a similar experience with a Compaq Prolinea 486 and
   if so how did you fix it

I would GREATLY appreciate any help anyone has to offer

Thanks in advance

Raymond Mulligan
