I've found the following line works well for me.  The "frame=e000" line uses
the 64K at E000:0 for the frame buffer.  This memory is normally not used by
emm386.  Without "frame=e000", emm386 uses 64K of memory that would be used
to load tsr's high.

DEVICE=c:\windows\emm386.exe 1024 frame=e000 ram
