Sandeep, I've read several descriptions, and even when you know what the meaning is, is hard to decide what to do with it! I just got a 386/33 with 4Mb Ram, 200Mb disk. Got Quarterdeck EMS, got himem.sys, got ramdrive.sys, etc... The question is how do you put this all toghether. After I load a video driver, a mouse driver, and setup bufers and files, I have programs complaining they don't have enough memory to run. ANd I don't have any TSRs loaded! Maybe I am just installing all this wrong. But I expected not to have so many problems with 4Mb! When anybody answers, and I know this has been discussed many times but answer anyway, can you make an example out of my setup? Where goes what? Sould I load the mouse.sys, or the TSR? What can be "loadhi"ed? How come the line quarterdeck added to my config sys only said device=qemm.sys < or something similar > with no flags? confused, but not giving up!
