Hi!

Problem: Sometimes (usually after some task finished) GlobalCompact() returns
negative value (usually 0xfffcXXXX). It continues until (it seems to me) first 
memory allocation. Does anybody know what it means? Note: GetFreeSpace() works
normally.

Configuration:
386 AT with 5MB, enhanced mode

Sincerely,
