I am using QEMM 5.11 on a Micronics 386-33 and was wondering if anyone has had any success using it with Turbo Debugger...actually, with any protected mode applications! device=qemm.sys NOSH NOEMS ROM RAM Is all that I use it for, that and loadhi and buffers. As far as I know Quarterdeck defined the VCPI, but when I try and run TD286 it says that I am running a non-VCPI compliant memory manager. I also get that complaint from TD386. I understand that two programs can't run in V8086 mode, but why cna't I use TD286? The docs state that it should work just fine. As a matter of fact, Borland mentions QEMM by name! If anyone is having a similar problem or knows what I can do, please help. Brian PS Note that Quarterdeck's tech support puts me on hold for 15-30 minutes at a time, and it's not toll free.

I also get that complaint When I contacted Quarterdeck Tech support on Compuserve, I was told that TD286 was itself not VCPI compliant. I'm surprised you get that message, though; I get an Exception 13 (from QEMM) when I try to run TD286. If there is anyone out there who understands whats going on, I'd certainly like to hear from them. -- .signature: permission denied

I have anoher problem with QEMM. Occasionally, the root directory of a heavily accessed floppy is scrambled, so that every other byte becomes FF. This never happens when I don;t have QEMM in the background. It happend with both V. 5.0 and 5.1, and only when multiple file copies where attempted. All virus checkers report no virus. Ideas anyone?

This can reportedly be helped by playing with the DMA= parameter. -- {backbone}!cs.cmu.edu!ralf ARPA: RALF@CS.CMU.EDU FIDO: Ralf Brown 1:129/3.1 BITnet: RALF%CS.CMU.EDU@CMUCCVMA AT&Tnet: (412)268-3053 (school) FAX: ask DISCLAIMER?
