I have installed Dos 5.0 on a 386SX and am having memory problems with QEMM. Everything seems to work well at the dos prompt:631K free. But when I run windows in any mode I get only 330k free in a dos windows. I used manifest and it says that convential memory ENDs at 330K! Desqview dies when I try to run win3 in standard mode. Further info: Qemm is on, Dos=high, there is no Emm386 driver loaded, othr than Qemm. If I use himem/Emm386 alternative to qemm I get 613k free at the dos prompt in win3. I think some sort of exclude statement with qemm might work, but thus far I have not figured it out. any suggestions? nbpy@vax5.cit.cornell.edu
