The same applies to EMM386 as to QEMM386, not much difference here... except
that I don't know of any switches to fix the problem. Check the DOS manual
for any switches similar to the QEMM's UNUSUAL8042 and IGNOREA20...
Try removing EMM386 from your CONFIG.SYS (put a REM in front of it), and see
if the problem, persists...
