How optimize mem        SD> utilization ?              Back in 1994, 24 megabytes was a LOT of RAM. If I remember right, you could use       HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.EXE to optimize your DOS memory. HIMEM loads part of DOS       in the memory between 640K and 1 meg, and EMM386.EXE lets programs access the       other 23 megs of RAM.       --- SBBSecho 3.00-Win32        * Origin: http://realitycheckbbs.org | tomorrow's retro tech (1:218/700)    |
