I have some problem with the accessing of 4M memory(SIMM) on my 386 pc. It
works ok for Win3.0, but when I try to use other applications(outside
window) like QuickC, it seems the program can't see the extended memory.
Someone told me that I should either upgrade to DOS 4.01(current 3.3) or
buy a Extended/Expanded manager(about 120 bucks).

Can anyone tell me whether Dos 4.01 can handle extended memory or not?
What shall I do? Any alternatives?

Thanks a lot.
