I have an expanded memory AT (16 bit) board (The Jameco 1082) that came with
a LIM 4.0 compatible driver.  The board has registers only for
LIM 3.2 specification, and uses memory to emulate the LIM 4.0 capabilities.
Unfortunately, this emulation is not as robust as it could be, causing
crashing and problems with programs that use expanded memory intensely.

I would like to get the earlier LIM 3.2 driver if possible.  Meanwhile
I am trying to dig out the drivers for some earlier 8 bit boards to
see if it works.  If anyone has the earlier driver, or useful suggestions,
or clever jokes, please reply.


Thanx
