Seems to me you are stuck since Dos 4.01 cannot be loaded high !  If you
want to due this Dos 5.0 is what you want using the DOS=HIGH setting in
your config.sys file. If you use DesQview then Dos 5.0 won't be of any use
either since the DOS=HIGH setting prevents DV from loading most of itself
HIGH. This causes an actual loss of approx. 10k of ram. If you don't use
DesQview then 5.0 is for you. See the comp.os.msdos.desqview forum for more
details
