I recently bought a 386-SX el-cheapo clone with MS-DOS 3.30 and 2
Mb of memory on motherboard (with possible expansion to 8 Mb).
Although the Set-up program in ROM indicates that the 2 Mb are
there, my software, such as WordPerfect 5.1 or Quattro Pro,
apparently doesn't know that they are there.  Is there some
software or driver I need so that my software can use this
additional memory?  If so, what do you recommend?  Is any such
software public domain?
