can some ibmpc-guru advise me how i could configure my ibm compatible system
with 4M RAM so that i could use memory beyond 640K. i was trying to use
some application software which couldn't run because there wasn't enough 
memory. i am wondering if i could expand my memory ( i already have 4M
installed, but they are 'extended memory') so that i could run several
application programs at the same time? do i need a memory manager or
i can do that with dos. i have 80386 33MHz system with 4.01 DOS.

            thanks a lot.
