I have a DTK XT clone with a VGA monitor.  I was under the impression
that with this set-up I could use the 64K of memory allocated for
video as extra program memory.  I tried running a PD program called 
"704K", but it responds telling me that I do not have 704K installed
in my system.  I have 704K of memory installed, and I have the switches
on the motherboard set to indicate 640K, but still no dice.  Has anyone
used this program?  Can you give me any tips to get it to work?  Thanks
a lot.
