I am getting a *Unrecoverable Application Error* everytime I
try to run a bigger problem (Windows Paint for example, as oppose
to accessories like clock).  This happens only when I am in
386 enhanced mode (with himem.sys loaded of course.)
Obviously I do have a 386 (Gateway 2000/20Mhz/Phoenix/296N(80m)/4meg)
but I just can't get this to work!

I do get an error when himem.sys is loaded (a warrning to be
exact).  It says it can't disable A20 (or something like that.)
I tried to use other handle numbers than 1 but no luck.
Can it be my memory chips?  I tried to create a perm. swap file
but it was no help either.
