I don't know whether this subject is discussed here recently. We have Zenith 286 PC's running PC-NFS Ver 3.01. There are also other software running on them which require more than 500K of base memory (won't use extended or expanded memory). I was interested whether PC-NFS can run on extended or expanded memory and the reply received from SUN Tech Support is: There is a Card and Software: Hi Card 2, AMS 5.0.4 by RYBS Electronics Inc. This card has about 256K, can use the software comes with it to put device drivers and TSR programs in the High Memory area ( don't know whether this is similar to expanded memory) - and this will free about 100K in the base memory. It is also tested in a Compaq Deskpro, with DOS 4.0.1, and this is the only card for 286 Machines, as per 'SUN Tech Support'. However, they don't have the contact number for RYBS Electronics. Did anyone out there use any similar PC/Card/Software and run PC-NFS on the High Memory area? Any other information regarding running PC-NFS there? Any Contact number for RYBS Electronics? Please reply to me directly - will post a summary if there is interest in this area. Thank you very much. ====================================================== Paul Alukal paul@popcbr.rockefeller.edu Population Council or New York, NY alukal@rockvax.rockefeller.edu =======================================================
