Help! I have been having a lot of memory problems lately. Having a mere 40 meg HD, I have recently done my best to transfer everything I own to Floppies that does not need to be on the drive, and zippng some files that I dont use daily. This included taking some of my window apps and even storing them on floppies. BUT: It didnt work! Believe it or not, It still says I have only 385K of memory available, in both windows and dos. it tells me 41.8M total, 385 available. yet, in doing a directory by directory manual addition of used memory, I only come up with 27.3M in use!!! What the hell happened to my other 14 megs? Any help is greatly appreciated.
