Well.... INBRDPC.SYS and HIMEM.SYS definitely do *NOT* get along
in standard mode on my PC. I'm used to running Win 3.0 on a 16mhz
386sx w/ 3mb / 800x600 at home. I'm trying to get the beater machine
at school to run.... So far, I've sucessfully run Windows 3.0
in Real Mode w/ the ILIM386.SYS ems emulator. No luck with standard
mode w/o 	ILIM386 and with HIMEM.SYS.
