I need drivers for PnP cards that aren't recognized by general DOS
(including 7.x) so they take up conventional memory.. And I need that to
get to 605k :)

 GS> What ones do YOU have trouble with? I'd like to give them a try.
Don't quite remember... Halloween Harry works after I patched 8 files with
the "runtime error 200" problem (sic) .. but some (like Outrun) just refuse
to work...

Not always, I do a lot of website-design and I have PaintShop Pro, Internet
Explorer, and some Explorer directories open.. No problem to play a game
(those apps don't take real idle cpu time) under Windows, all my files are
open and stay that way, but if I have to reboot, I have to re-open
everything afterwards...

:-))

Windows' memory & resources management isn't really 100%, I've seen.. Even
on bootup, with 224meg of RAM, I only have 63% resources free :-(
