Hi netlanders,

does anyone know of a solution to the following problem....

We have a 286 PC/AT with 640k conventional memory and 384k
extended memory which is located at address 1 Megabyte.

Our networking software takes up about 110k of conventional.
Also, other TSRs and device drivers use about 120k. What
we would like to do is to increase the amount of 'useable'
DOS memory. Is it possible to load some of the TSRs and
device drivers in the extended memory a la LastByte? We
do NOT have the C&T chipset though!

Any ideas will be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance.

Kev
