Although a workaround wasn't requested, here's another way to free up some of the 640 base. Qualitas wrote a program that allows a user to put just about anything in hi-mem. One especially nice feature is that you can specify the exact address that you want the program to be loaded. There is a version for 386's, '386-to-the-Max', and a version for 286's, 'Move'em'. We've used the 386 version on HP RS-20's. Tom Vandenberg {..uunet..uwvax!uwmcsd1..}!marque!studsys!vanden vanden%studsys@marque.UUCP {..uwvax..arpa..}!studsys.mu.edu!vanden
