Sorry I didn't specify.  I _AM_ using Borland C++ 3.0 on a 386-16 DX with
2 meg of memory under DR DOS 6.0.  The only way I have found to operate
bc.exe is to have a seperate config.sys configuration that doesn't install
EMM386.SYS at all.  I can then invoke BC.EXE with the /X flag to use all
extended as expanded.  Fortunately, DR DOS makes it very easy to maintain
and use multiple configurations.  Unfortunately, this doesn't answer the
initial conflict and what caused it.  I also tried using EMM386.SYS with 
the proper flags to configure all extended memory as expanded.  This
didn't work either.  Thanks for all the replies to the original post.
