Hello everyone,
I have a computer with 4GB of RAM and would like to write 32-bit applications (using the FreeBasic 32-bit compiler for DOS) that use as much as possible of this memory. I find the executables generated will run well enough under FreeDos, but they can only see 2 GB of RAM. I am using CWSDPMI version 5b as my DPMI server. Please can anybody tell me how (or if ?) I can configure CWSDPMI to access all of my physical RAM? If this is not possible, can anyone suggest an alternative DPMI server that supports 4 GB ?

Roberto,

Are you using a XMS driver (probably), and which one (HIMEM.SYS/HIMEM.EXE/FDXMS.SYS/FDXXMS.SYS) exactly?
can you run MEM /C /P from the commandline and paste the output into your next email? That way you can see how much RAM the XMS driver gives access to.
I don't know if XMS driver is required for CWSDPMI though.
