You probably mean the LOWDMA sys and com which come with UMBPCI. In that

Hi,
Based on Eric's comments and with Jack's help, I was able to get rawrite3
to work under freedos by a) loading lowdma.sys in fdconfig.sys early
durting boot b) LH rawrite3.
Unfortunately that does not work with hard drive manufacturer's tools, they
complain at LH about lack of RAM. Since they
Hi,
rawrite1 also works. Problem is tools from maxtor/western digital/seagate
etc appear to be based around some hard wired version of rawrite3, which
prevents these tools from being able to create their bootdisks under
freedos.

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. Hardware is a year 1995 486-DX4 100, hardly

Maybe your BIOS or MBR-based dynamic drive overlay / EZ-drive is
less flexible with DMA boun
Hi,
I keep getting the error dma crosses 64k boundary when using tools like
rawrite3 or hard drive manufacturers tools floppy creation software. I need
to boot from Windows 98 bootdisk to get rid of it.
Please let me know if there is a way to get rid of this problem under
