Whenever I use smartdrive it seems to hide a large part of my extended
memory from other programs.  I have 5 megs of ram total.  If I run mem with
SmartDrive not installed, it says that I have ~4 megs extended memory.  If
I set smartdrive up to have 1 meg and run mem again it says I have 0 meg
extended memory.  As a result I can't run a DOS application that needs the
extra memory.  It runs without smartdrive installed, but not with it
installed. 

Anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?
