I currently have 2 megs total RAM on an AT 286, and I'd like Windows 3.0 to be able to use all of it. Now am I correct in assuming that it must use HIMEM.SYS to do this? I do install it as a device driver in CONFIG.SYS, but it says only 64k is used..? Is there some switch I can set to make it the whole 2 megs? On another note, is there a way to draw/create new icons? Or perhaps an FTP site where there are some? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.. ************************************************************************ * Matthew S.
