I'm running Windows 3.0 on my 25mhz 386 with 2 megs, and I had some 
questions about this so-called enhanced mode.  When I type just "win"
at the command prompt, Windows throws me into STANDARD mode with 907k
RAM.  The manual says that with my configuration, it should default to
enhanced.  After I created a 2-meg cache on my hard disk (the actual
name of this procedure slips my mind at the moment) and typed "win /3"
at the DOS prompt, it ran in enhanced mode with some 2.7 megs of RAM.
Is it normal for Windows not to default to enhanced mode?  Thanks...
