Why does VDISK not install, claiming insufficient memory, with this
config.sys?  I have 12 Meg of memory and when I boot DOS, want to use
some of this memory for virtual disk space and for expanded memory.
I use WordPerfect, which can use expanded memory.  If I let VDISK default,
it installs a 64K virtual disk.  By the way, is there any way to add
comments to a config.sys??  Please reply directly to me.  Thanks!
