Hello,

I have an IBM PS/2 model 50 with total RAM of 7 mega and connected
to a LAN network. I use IBM DOS 5.0 now and I want to free-up as much
conventional memory as I can. But even with the DEVICEHIGH= commands in
config.sys and LOADHIGH commmands in autoexec.bat, none of the programs
(e.g. mouse.com) seems to leave the conventional memory. What should I
do in order to force as many programs to run in high memory as I can?
Does the loadhigh command work in 286 machines? Please advise!

Alex
