Has anyone experienced the following problem?
Microsoft Windows 2.03 does not recognize the expanded memory (allegedly, LIM
specification compatible) provided by the PB-220 card configured to represent
1.5 MBytes of expanded (LIM-compatible) memory. Packard Bell diagnostics
say that I have the proper amount of expanded memory, whereas
MS Windows "About MSDOS" output does not mention any expanded memory
is present.
I have asked the dealer to question Packard Bell about this. Microsoft
Canada has said that it is probably PB's fault.
All books I have on MS Windows programming are silent about the use of
expanded memory.
Any suggestions?

Try a system info utility such as Norton's SI. It will give you a readout of all recognised memory. If it says you have extended and/or expanded memory, then it is either a bios or Windows problem. -- Charles Lord cjl@ecsvax.UUCP Usenet Cary, NC cjl@ecsvax.BITNET Bitnet #include <std.disclamers> #include <cutsey.quote>
