alan Don't know if your program uses DPMI, but some out of memory problems can be solved by disabling memory drivers e.g. EMM386/HIMEM, and letting DPMI take over extended memory. This worked for my DJGPP program which uses DPMI.. http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/v2faq/faq15_7.html When I first ran it, it would page out every time something moved on screen. After I disabled memory drivers, it's fine.

I managed to make the boot up disk and tried it. It runs my program but got "out of memory" problems when running DOS QB4.5 shell command unlike the regular msdos. Any idea to overcome it? maybe have to put ctmouse on high mem? I booted up my old pentium with the freedos diskette. After a few times, my win95 OS got lost. Had to reinstall Win95 again. :>) Have not tried the CD bootup yet. shall try later. thanks for your advice. regards alan Johnson Lam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On Wed, 21 Dec 2005 18:04:51 +0000 (GMT), you wrote: Hi Alan Ho, > When burning CD using XP I normally use the XP's own burner. As Giorgos Kostopoulos suggested, BURNATONCE is a good choice for ISO, and it's free for home user. If you ONLY want a bootable FreeDOS floppy, you can try ODIN 0.6 or my "USB Driver Disk", but since they're 1 disk floppy, you have to download other FreeDOS utilities by yourself. ODIN 0.6: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1disk/ odin060 USB Driver Disk: http://johnson.tmfc.net/freedos Click "USB Driver Disk".
