just to add something here, when I tried to get my AST Premium II 386SX/20's
built-in SVGA to work in windows, the drivers they supplied for windows
specificly stated that it would only work in real or standard mode (in
fact, windows setup said this when I added it).

I'd agree with the guy before, use HIMEM.SYS that came with windows, don't
bother with shadow ram, and you might want to consider dumping the smartdrv
since it might end up ruining your hard drive (esp since you said that you're
using disk manager to deal with your hard drive).  I'd definately check
into this.
