Could anyone tell me how to set up my machine so it recognises all
of the memory? I have an Atari 286 (PC4) with 1MB memory and AMI BIOS.

Pressing <Del> during booting casues the system to prompt with
"Run SETUP or DIAGS?" but the setup doesn't allow the extra 384k
to be recognised. The machine gets into this state if you accidentally
(or on purpose) press <Ins> during booting -- this causes the XCMOS
information to be erased and the default settings to be used instead.

I think there is a program called NEAT.EXE which does this but cannot
get it anywhere.

Any help would be much appreciated.
