EMS or Upper memory is there, I can load, SMARTDRV and RAMDRIVE, with copious
memory with no functional issue.

Maybe there's something I'm missing, what architecture settings? I didn't do
a lot other than look at some vids to get the VM to a workable stage then
just cloned it. So I don't really know much about it, but, I only recall
seeing processor performance options nothing about how it behaves though.

If'n I recall right, there was some value in using QEMM's loadhigh without
any specifications, and having some things manage to load high.  Like my
ANSI.SYS... and just in case... don't load SHARE high, it all looks good, but
isn't doing anything :)
