To test this, I change the first few lines of my CONFIG.SYS file which are -- DEVICE=C:\BIN\UMBPCI.SYS DEVICE=C:\BIN\XMGR.SYS /W DOS=HIGH,UMB REM DEVICE=C:\BIN\JEMM386.EXE I=B000-B7FF X=C800-EFFF NOEMS Normally, I "remark out" (REM) JEMM386 and use it only for UIDE/ UIDE2 testing. After editing, my CONFIG.SYS file began with -- DEVICE=C:\BIN\XMGR.SYS /B DOS=HIGH,UMB DEVICE=C:\BIN\JEMM386.EXE I=B000-B7FF I=CC00-DFFF DEVICEHIGH=C:\BIN\XMGR.SYS XMGR loads first in /B "boot" mode, then after JEMM386 enables upper-memory, XMGR loads again and "moves" to upper-memory, as was my original "scheme" for it to save 640K DOS memory. The JEMM386 driver is told to "map" the B000-B7FF monochrome video area and from CC00-DFFF as upper-memory. My video BIOS takes up to CBxx, and I wanted to avoid E000 up so JEMM386 could use it as an "EMS page frame". Did not try this on FreeDOS, but on my "old" V6.22 MS-DOS, the edited CONFIG.SYS file "booted" with NO "gripes or groans"!! Rugxulo, I REALLY think you should check AGAIN running JEMM386 without "NOEMS" -- worked fine for me! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
