Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS 1.2 - Preview 22

I just downloaded the bootable FD 1.2pre22 CD and booted a VM in VirtualBox. I see `FDAPM APMDOS` in autoexec.bat. No IDLEHALT in FDCONFIG.SYS. CPU also spikes to 100% when I run `edit autoexec.bat`. On Tue, Jul 19, 2016 at 8:22 PM, Rugxulo wrote: > Hi, > > On Jul 19, 2016

Hi Dimitris and others, as I received some (aggressive) corrections from Jack and Johnson: Yes of course I can read manuals myself. The XMGR option /T0 means 'No "E820h" nor "E801h" requests.' so please try if the two HIMEMX options /X (no int 15.e820 requests) and /NOABOVE16 (no int 15.e801
