Yes, I do use Windows, and yes, now that you mention it, I do have
HIMEM.sys as the first entry in config.sys. I try removing it
(when I get home).
Which brings up the question, how do you set up Windows if your
not using himem.sys (and one assumes, smartdrv.sys)? Do you just
keep switching/rebooting between config.sys' for Windows and UltraScript
or what?
Thanks for the tip ( and hope it works),
