Message-ID: <713@amsaa-cleo.brl.mil> Date: 11 Mar 91 12:32:24 GMT Followup-To: poster Organization: U.S. Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity Lines: 29 System: 386 SX - 16 Clone 387 Copro 65 Meg Hard Drive 2 Meg of Ram Problem: When I orginally installed Win 3.0 the default operating mode was 386 Enhanced. This weekend I installed QEMM v 5.1 (device = c:\qemm\ qemm386.sys RAM) and and now it will only go into 386 Enhanced if I force it with the "Win /3" switch. Now I can't get Windows to let me execute any of the Dos Apps that I used to before I installed QEMM. It says not enough memory. When I check it by clicking the Program manager's "About Help" box it says I have 86% resources free and 4953K (I would assume that this includes virtual memory). It was suggested in a posting to try the undocumented "win /x" command to help windows understand the way QEMM set up the memory. When I do this I get an Application error - check path. So needless to say I need some help because I haven't got the foggest idea how to fix my problem. Thanks in advance for the help. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Gaeth | My opinions are my own Tues-Thurs. The P.O.
