JEMM is not a replacement of EMM386. I used it this year and lost many user's databases. Jemm is too much optimized an this is hardware dependent, it does not work alike on all machines. I reverted to EMM386 and everything is running smoothly again. I am responsible for just ove 100 (ONE hundred) DOS machines running 24/7 with heavy database usage. >> The other strange thing is that first (Load FreeDOS with EMM386, no EMS >> (most UMBs), max RAM free) or third (Load FreeDOS including HIMEM XMS-memory >> driver) option in startup menu works normally, as I see (not investigated >> seriously, but at least it looks so). > > Sounds like an EMM386 bug. I know I don't speak for everybody, but > I'll try anyways: nobody uses "old" EMM386, use "new" JEMM386. ;-) I use and it old stable and relyable. On 2 new machines (last+this month) I had problems with X=TEST, I made it work with EMM386 NOEMS X=C000-EFFF NODISABLEA20 NOVDS /VERBOSE this was apparently due to some periferal in UMB not detected Alain > >> Fourth option can’t be chosen at all. > > You can edit it by hand (if savvy enough). > >> So as I’m new to this kind of OS I ask where can I read about this problem >> with second menu option and how can I try to fix it, if it’s possible? > > http://home.mnet-online.de/willybilly/fdhelp-dos/ > > N.B. to others, the news item has long ago scrolled off the main page, > so we need to not forget to proofread this (FDhelp) one of these > days!!!!!!!!! > >> Just for now I’ve edited fdconfig.sys to hide menu and use the third option >> by default, but it doesn’t look like a good solution. >> What kind of hardware info may be helpful for solving this problem? > > Just upgrade to JEMM386 first, then we'll see. > > Though I would also suggest getting kernel 2040, but I don't think > that specifically will fix anything here. > > http://sourceforge.net/projects/freedos/files/Kernel/2040/ke2040_86f32.zip/download > http://sourceforge.net/projects/freedos/files/Kernel/2040/ke2040s.zip/download > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a > definitive record of customers, application performance, security > threats, fraudulent activity and more.
