Gudday,
 
        Anybody come across the problem of only having 639K available to DOS?
The DOS MEM command reports only 654 366 bytes available instead of 655 360.
 
        My machine is an IBM AT compatible '386 with 640K conventional
memory (supposedly) and 2048K extended. It has a Phoenix 80386 ROM BIOS PLUS,
Version 1.10 03. It runs MS-DOS 4.01 operating system.
 
        Any info would be appreciated.
 
                                David Hichens.
