Lines: 9 Himem.sys provides access to a 64K High Memory Area (a chunk you can't usually) get at. This is a small area of extended memory above 1Mbyte. I suspect you're memory program can't cope with this .sys file running. Really a few more detailsare necessary. Do you run in standard,real or enhanced mode when in windows? What else do you have in your config.sys file? That's not much use but we could use some more data! Regards, Dan C. (HP Pinewood UK - Big Blues Little brother!)
