[comp.os.msdos.apps] QEMM vs. 386Max

as5x+@andrew.cmu.edu (Alexei H. Sacks) (04/04/91)

I have two questions about memory management software:

1) Is there a difference between what QEMM and 386Max do? Do I need both
   or is QEMM enough?

   (I am using an Intel 129 with 512K base memory which requires some kind
    of software fix.)

2) While using QEMM to get 640K base memory, I ran into problems with a
   Banshee (DSP) board installed in the computer.  The board was set to
   memory location C800 and at least 16K above, but QEMM said that was
    used for High RAM and unavailable.  The hardware was not recognized by
    its software with QEMM but it was without it, so I know this is the
    problem.  I have not been able to figure out how to change the memory
    window to C800.  Is this possible?  Suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Please respond to sacks@bilge.ece.cmu.edu, or to the bboard if there is
general interest.

Thanks again.
