I am running DOS 5.0, Windows 3.1, and QEMM version 6 (I think, but I forgot
to check) on my 386/33, 4Mb.  I am trying to reconfigure QEMM so that it
leaves some extended memory (it is currently configured to manage all
extended memory as expanded memory).

My CONFIG.SYS contains:
	Device=QEMM.SYS RAM ROM EXTMEM=1024
	DOS=HIGH
and nothing else.

When I do this, Windows will not boot in enhanced mode, but will in standard
mode.  If I remove either the EXTMEM=1024 phrase or remove DOS=HIGH,
Windows boots just fine.  It doesn't matter how much memory I try to leave
unconverted (EXTMEM=1 has the same effect).

When Windows tries to start, the logo comes up and I am then returned
politely to a C: prompt, with no messages of any kind.

What's going on?

Thanks,
