The function "DosMonReg()" returns an "8" (ERROR_NOT_ENOUGHT_MEMORY)
in the following following program. I'm running OS/2 1.2 WR4098 and
compiling under Microsoft "C" 6.0 running PWB. It compiles and links
fine. The machine I'm using is an IBM PS/2 Model 80 with 8 megabytes
of ram and 330 megabyte winchester. No other processes, other than the
standard OS/2 processes, were running. What am I doing wrong?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <malloc.h>

#define INCL_BASE
#include <os2.h>

MONIN moninOutput ;
MONIN moninInput ;

#define MAXBUFF   0x7fff

VOID main(int argc,char **argv)
{
   USHORT      usFlag ;
   USHORT      usRtnCode ;
   HMONITOR    hmonDevice ;
   BYTE        bCom = 0 ;
   PUCHAR      pucInBuff ;
   USHORT      usMax = MAXBUFF ;
   USHORT      usIndex ;

   usRtnCode = DosMonOpen(argv[1],&hmonDevice) ;
   if(usRtnCode){
      printf("Error:could not open %s\n",argv[1]) ;
      exit(-1) ;
   }
   usRtnCode = DosDevIOCtl(0L,&bCom,0x0060,0x000b,hmonDevice) ;
   if(usRtnCode){
      printf("Error:%s dos not support monitors\n",argv[1]) ;
      usRtnCode = DosMonClose(hmonDevice) ;
      exit(-1) ;
   }
   pucInBuff = (PUCHAR)calloc(1,MAXBUFF) ;
