I have installed Dos 5.0 on a 386SX and am having memory problems with
QEMM.  Everything seems to work well at the dos prompt:631K free.  But
when I run windows in any mode I get only 330k free in a dos windows.  I
used manifest and it says that convential memory ENDs at 330K!  Desqview
dies when I try to run win3 in standard mode.
Further info: Qemm is on, Dos=high, there is no Emm386 driver loaded, othr
than Qemm.  If I use himem/Emm386 alternative to qemm I get 613k free at
the dos prompt in win3.  I think some sort of exclude statement with qemm
might work, but thus far I have not figured it out.  any suggestions?
