I thought that the RAM switch would give me access to expanded memory AND the
upper memory area. I can't LOADHIGH any devices when the switch is set to RAM
(works fine with NOEMS) and I need exPanded memory for SuperCalc. Windows 3.1
won't give me Expanded memory for SC5 unless I use the RAM swich. What gives?
I confess... I'm greedy. I want both LOADHIGH and Expanded memory.
