   Hi,

   I'm trying to get the Microsoft mouse driver that came with Windows 3.1 to 
load in umb's or high memory with DOS5.0 but loadhigh doesn't seem to want to 
put it anywhere but in low mem.  A "mem /c" reveals that it's hogging about
17K of low mem and reports that there is a block of almost 30K in UMB.  Why
won't EMM386 load it into the umbs?  I've tried everything (except QEMM ;^).   

   So, if anyone can explain this to me, or if anyone has QEMM for sale or
trade, let me know.

Thanks,
Mark
