[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Need help with expanded memory from Everex on Epson II+

greggt@VAX1.CC.UAKRON.EDU (Gregg F. Thompson) (04/29/89)

A friend of mine has an Expanded memory card (16bit I think) from Everex (
Ram3000 Deluxe or something like that).  However, the person he bought it
from ended up not giving him the original disks OR the manual!  He called
Everex and had to purchase the utilities and disks in order to get the
manual ($30).  He is still waiting for it...

Now his problem.  He has Disk Manager and Expanded Memory Manager from
Everex running in memory.  He then tries to run Enable 3.0 and there are
a few things he can't do because of the limited memory...  Now he would like
to a program like desqview or something to run his programs in his expanded
memory, but from what I have read he must have the expanded memory take over
part of the base memory.  I am checking to see what the least amount of
memory the epson must have on the motherboard but even if it is 256k that will
leave him with 384k of memory for applications in desqview, even if it went
down to 128k on the base memory he would only have 512k (which I am not sure
if it will go that low).  He would like to have desqview give him full 640k
in expanded memory.  Can this be done?  Anyone have any technical information
on the Epson Equity II+?  Is there any other package that will run programs in
the expanded memory?  He doesn't really need anything too fancy...

THankS!!!
