This 286 machine was shipped with only 1 Meg of RAM.  As far as I
am able to determine, I can get access to memory beyond MS-DOS
conventional memory only as expanded memory.  I can configure
conventional and expanded as 640K/256K, or 512K/384K.  When I
setup the computer with the memory as extended, it is unaddressable.

I would like to be able to address that extra 1/4 megabyte as extended,
so that I could use MS-Windows, which needs the 256K as extended rather
than as expanded.

Any suggestions?
