[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] PC-NFS and lack of available memory for other applications

glenn@MITRE.ARPA (11/30/88)

        I would appreciate any suggestions on how to pare down the 
  memory requirements for PC-NFS so that I can run another application 
  concurrently which also takes a lot of memory.  

        My configuration is the following:  I have PC-NFS running on an 
  an IBM-AT (with 640K of memory) with a 3Com 3C505 board.  I also have 
  a PCVISION Frame Grabber card, which is used to display 512x512 images 
  on a monitor separate from the PC's EGA monitor.  With PC-NFS loaded, 
  I am able to load (medical) images into the PCVISION's display memory
  and have the images displayed.  I do this using my own programs that 
  are written in C.  The problem arises when I try to use the ImagePro 
  software package to load the same images -- it can't complete the 
  operation and says that there is "Insufficient Memory" and "Memory 
  is Full".  Is there anyone out there who has tried to do this or 
  something similar?  The two software packages work fine on separate 
  machines -- I've been pleased with both; but, when loaded together on 
  the same PC, they run out of room.  I would appreciate any help offered 
  in solving this.  Thanks.  Please respond directly to me at address 
  below as I am not a subscriber to this digest.
