As far as I am aware, memory managers such as Quarterdeck's QEMM386 and
Microsoft's EMM386.SYS (bundled with Windows 3 and now DOS 5, I believe)
allow extended memory to be used as expanded memory. Quarterdeck also do
a utility called QRAM which allows device drivers etc to be loaded high,
in address space between 640KB and 1MB. You don't need to get the
Quarterdeck offerings, though, since there is a shareware equivalent
called vram/386 (I think) and hram.
