The above paragraph needs a little clarification. It is true that Windows/386
will set the pageframe at that address. However, if any other device or
adaptor is using the range, Windows File.About command will not report any
expanded memory. Also, to allocate the pageframe at the desired address you
need to precede the address with a zero. Yes, a zero on the left side. This is
the only WIN.INI switch that REQUIRES the zero. A sample line would be:

	emmpageframe=0D000

Without the leading zero, the above statement is useless.
Please note that all entries for the WIN.INI need to be in lower case.

(Unfortunately, not mentioning the leading zero was an error on Microsoft part)
