Well this is STRANGE...
I have 386MAX 5.1, and when I run BCX it runs fine, it even manages to use
VCPI to get the Expanded memory 386MAX is managing, and convert it to
extended, (At least the get info says I have 4Mb when I have only
reserved 700k extended memory).

my 386max.pro file is:-
ROM=C000-C800
EXT=2247	; save 2Mb for Hyperdisk, 700k for BCX

This seems to work for me!!
