We have a 286 based compatible computer running IBM DOS V5.00.  We
installed Borland C++ V2.0 and tried to run it.  Everything worked
fine.

Later, upon cleaning up some hard disk space, the machine started
coming back with the error:

Memory Manager cannot initialize

We then tried to re-install Borland C++, and even re-installed our old
version of Turbo C++ 1.01 both of which return the same error.

We have called Borland, with little or no success, and re-installed DOS.

We have 1024 KB installed, and even tried swapping a memory card from
another PC to boost the memory up to 1600 KB.  No Luck.

Other attempts included deleting autoexec.bat and config.sys so that
there is no driver wierdness going on but no luck. 

Please HELP.

Thanks,

Harjit
