Hi there, I know I kinda missed out on all this DR-DOS talk lately, but I
was on MSDOS5 until a few days ago.  I received my official release of
Windows 3.1 the other day, but when I tried to run setup, it said that my
XMS manager was incompatible.  I have
	DEVICE=HIDOS.SYS
	HIGHDEVICE=PCKWIN.SYS

These are the standard install options for DR-DOS, so I presume they are
fairly harmless.  Is there something I should add/delete/modify, or do I
have a problem here?

Please reply to chryses@xurilka.UUCP if possible.

Thanks!
