No, I did not. I said the Microsoft EMM386 RAM option did not work that way, as far as causing the sharing of EMS and XMS memory. I did not say Microsoft EMM386 version 4.45 itself did not share. MS EMM386 versions prior to 4.45, however, also do not share the pool. Bottom line: the RAM option does not work the way you apparently believe it does, based on Microsoft's own documentation. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Robotic Monkeys at ThinkGeek For a limited time only, get FREE Ground shipping on all orders of $35 or more.
