HELP!! When running the WordStar "WINSTALL" program, this is what happens: A>winstall too little memory A> I have an AT&T PC 6300 with 640K, and have no idea why that happens. hou2e!ksl

* You might try using debug or something similar to see if near the beginning of winstall it is looking at the 2nd or 3rd byte of the program segment prefix to find the top of memory. A friend of mine had a similar problem with masm 1.00 when he switched to a machine with 640k from one with 512k. He found that masm was using a signed compare instead of unsigned to check for available memory. He changed the compare to unsigned and it works fine. Perhaps you have the same problem.
