Hello world,

recently I got a larger HD. On my previous HD I had Win3.11 installed
and a year later I upgraded to Win95.

Whenever I played a DOS-based game that required EMS (expanded memory)
I used 'memmaker' to get me some.

On my new HD Win95 was installes straight away; and memmaker seems to
have gone with the wind. How/where can I get/use memmaker.

Last but not least : the amount of free 'base memory' available seems
to have taken a steep dive. Wheter or not I use the DOS window in
Win95, or I restart my computer in DOS mode I never get more than
+/-550K free base memory available.

Any help/replies would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

William
