I bought myself a nice little 486-33 a few months ago, spent three weeks with my head in the DOS manual, and ended up with a nice system config. with nearly everything in the High MEmory Area. Ok, good. The problem is, for some completely unknown reason all the things that I was able to fit in the HMA two months ago won't fit there now. Somehow I've managed to lose about 4K or more HMA space. I don't know whether this is beacuse more space has gone to the system stuff or because the system's actually finding less memory up there or what. What determines the amount of space avail. when you put DOS high, and how can you change it? All advice gratefully accepted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Mackey | "I think therefore I am" - Descartes. u895027@tasman.cc.utas.edu.au | "I think I think therefore perhaps I am" E-mail should be accompanied by | - a more cautious philosophical outlook. $1000 in unmarked $5 notes, | "I drink to unthink, which proves that I preferably in a brown paper bag. | think" - not the famous Ly Tin Wheedle. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
