Hi John As you pointed out the combination of FreeDOS Beta9sr2 and OpenGEM is working on a 486 machine, but there are weird errors when running the same setup with the same configuration on a Pentium machine. Let's see what happens if you have no HIMEN or EMM386. Will OpenGEM run applications correctly then? I'm wondering if it is possible that OpenGEM applications are making calls that the Pentium system is handling differently to the 486 system. Perhaps Eric could enlighten regarding this possibility? What is interesting here is that OpenGEM works fine under Windows 95/98/XP on Pentium class machines. I've also had no reports of errors like this from people using OpenGEM with FreeDOS before, so either something is happening with the particular kernel and freecom files in this distribution or it may be an issue with calling higher memory?
