Does anyone know of software to fake LIM expanded memory using standard extended memory? The machine in question is a 33 MHz Zenith '386 box. Please mail responses: I will summarize and post. Thanks. -Dean

Not only will it give you the EMS emulation you are looking for, it can perform a multitude of other useful memory tricks. It is made by Qualitas and can purchased mail order for about $75. Well worth the money, IMHO.

QEMM 5.0 from Quaterdeck does more or less the same thing as 386 to the Max. I think it is a little cheaper and more "idiot proof" in the automated installation. Brent H. Besler

More or less with the exception of handling Sun's PC-NFS sockdrv.sys, which QEMM can not loadhi. QEMM is also incredibly quirky about what high memory (A000-FFFF:F) can and can not be mapped. I still don't understand when a configuration will and will not work and I probably understand PC memory better than most people. I don't have any experience with 386Max. -- Phil Ngai, phil@amd.com {uunet,decwrl,ucbvax}!amdcad!phil Boycott the census! With the history of abuse census data has, do you really trust the government?
