Randy,
    I would recommend that you remove ega.sys, it is not needed and in
    fact will create problems for your VGA in hi-res modes.

    Second, the himem.sys MUST be the next line after your SHELL line in
    your config.sys file.

    Third, you must have at least 2 Meg of RAM left after loading TSR's,
    RAM disc's, etc.

    Fourth, in your system.ini, exclude the range A000-CFFF.  This will
    stop display memory allocation and I/O conflicts.

    Good Luck,

    Val Walker
