|My high memory maps as follows:
|
|	A000-AFFF	VGA graphics
|	BOOO-B7FF	Text display
|	B800-BFFF	Free
|	C000-C7FF	Video ROM
|	C800-CFFF	Free
|	D000-DFFF	EMS page frame
|	E000-E7FF	Shadow ROM (can't disable)
|	E800-EFFF	Free
|	F000-FFFF	Shadow ROM (can't disable)

Some questions:

1) Are you sure that B800-BFFF is free? Most VGA do use it.

2) Are you sure you can't disable shadow RAM?

3) Have you tried RAMming F000-F7FF?

4) Have you tried moving the EMS page frame so your contiguous
free hi-memory is as large as possible?
