There is indeed a HIMEM.SYS supplied with Windows 3.0.  I think it's copied
to C:\ during installation.  During installation, you should have selected
'Let Windows modify your AUTOEXEC and CONFIG files, but allow you to check
the changes before overwriting them.' Then it would have been obvious where
HIMEM.SYS came from.
