That should make your NOEMS problem go away.
Or maybe I won't. That marvel of DOS extender technlogy called DOS/4GW will throw all XMS allocations to the winds if it detects more than 3 free pages of EMS available and go with a pure VCPI allocation scheme. Which, if you have even 5 EMS pages free, means that DOS/4GW then immediately fails due to being out of memory. So, I'll have to make NOEMS throttle back to 1 or 2 pages to be safe. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
