[stuff deleted about USPC not working on this configuration]
->You can of course use Windows and smartdrv without himem.sys. You just
->have less memory to work with (about 48K less).
->
->Another gentlemen from Shell responded that his configuration works OK
->with himem.sys V2.06, which is the latest version, and the one I was
->having trouble with. QMS says you may or may not be able to get
->himem.sys V2.06 to coexist with USPC. I could not, reliably.
  
   This weekend I re-tested USPC with minimal configurations: nothing but
   "files=" and "buffers=" in config.sys and the basic PATH and SET commands
   in autoexec.bat.  This left USPC with nothing out of the ordinary in memory
   drivers, etc., and a full 1.9+ Meg. of motherboard RAM to play around with.

   I was careful to redo the USPC memory setup program.  To make a long story
   short, it still hung the system (after printing the PS file)?!?!?!?!?!?
