Use X=TEST I'm not convinced /TESTMEM does anything terribly useful, although the people who originally wrote the option or who use it may disagree with my personal opinion there. Disk I/O will always run slower under virtual 8086 mode, present and active by definition with EMM386. HIMEM has nothing to do with it, and that entire topic should be removed from the discussion as irrelevant. Memory managers should not enjoy inaccurate benchmarks by piggybacking them off the actual benefits of other utilities -- UMBPCI in this case. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
