-Fellow posters,
     Can anyone tell me how to expand the memory in a PC beyond 640K?  I have
a regular video board requiring 16K and an 8K BIOS.  No other peripherals
[Crequire addressable memmory.  By my calculations, that leaves me with 1000K.
I have a clone with 640K installed on the motherboard.  Can I expand with
piggy-backing?  If so, how do I let DOS know that I have the extra memory
installed?  Thanks in advance for responses.
                                       -Darren Friedlein
