I have a 286 with 2 meg of memory and MS-DOS 5.0, and I have tried to use
QRAM, PEMM, and other programs to use (some of) my memory as high memory,
but I failed :-(
I think this is due to the fact that the memory is configured as extended
memory. I have some dipswitches on my motherboard to convert it to expanded
memory, but I don't have an expanded memory manager, which makes this option
useless :-(
The manual references Suntac's EMM (SEMS I believe), but I didn't
receive it with my computer.

So the questions are:
a) Does anybody out there now where to get SEMS? If so, please mail/reply!
b) Does someone know of another solution to use HMA? I haven't tries TLB or
   UMB_DRVR yet, but if someone knows if this should work, please tell me.

Any answers/suggestions will be greatly appreciated...
