In a message on Sunday 01-09-16 mark lewis said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Good morning Mark,   
      
    HG> Yes - but with the help of QEMM 386 the memory problem was solved   
    HG> quite nicely, even though you had to juggle the values a bit.   
      
   ml> in my case, it required a special memory board... one that could   
   ml> ""back fill"" the base memory... if i had 512k base memory, then i   
   ml> could back fill with a 512k chunk... that let DV have up to 512k   
      
   I just looked at the MEM report of my first setup for DV, including a   
   Hitachi CD drive. I had 616 kb memory free (630......bytes).   
      
   That CD drive reminds of my trials yesterday to get the operating sys-   
   tem to recognise all five CD's of my Nakamichi 5-disk changer.   
      
   Previously, when that drive was alone, all five disks were recognised,   
   but now I added a Plexwriter CD/RW drive and since then only one disk   
   is usable (the first one) of the changer. All five disks do show up at   
   boot-up, including the CD/RW.   
      
   I'll have to open up the box of worms an check SCSI id jumpers, even   
   though I carefully did that at the mechanical installation.   
      
   ml> not all memory cards would back fill the base 1024k of RAM,   
   ml> either...   
      
   I never had any reson to use those memory cards.   
      
   ml> i dont' remember what mine were... i should still have them laying   
   ml> about around here somewhere... i've been thinking about tossing up a   
   ml> virtual machine and seeing if it will run DV with QEMM... if that   
   ml> back filling of the memory hole thing works, it should be ok :)   
      
   Just yesterday I dug up a copy of the QEMM floppy and copied the files   
   to the "new" BBS machine I'm setting up.   
      
      
   Have a nice day,   
      
   Holger
