 DS> I have a machine a 386sx, with 1 meg of ram.  How can I use the  
 DS> memory abouve 640k?  I am using JAWS screen review.  73 
  

The memory between 640K and one meg is memory used by the system
for video display, network drivers, etc.  You must use a program
which moves TSR programs, such as your screen reader to that
memory.  I have used QEMM-386 from Quarterdeck Systems.  The
program lists for 89 or 99 dollars, I can't remember.  I think I
paid about 53 dollars.  QEMM is considered to be the best of this
type.  It has an install program, and a program called optimize
which will install the program, test high memory and move
everything it can there.  It works very well.  QEMM will also
change any extended memory you have to expanded memory, so it is
more easily used.  David Andrews
