Hi Roberto, In Windows Me you must being loading a DOS or 16bit TSR, otherwise you should have close to 600KB in conventional memory available in the DOS virtual machine. Open a DOS window and type mem /c and see if you can identify what TSR is being loaded in addition to MSDOS, VMM32, and COMMAND. If you're using a batch file to load your DOS application see if you can get any of the executables to load in high memory by prefixing the command with "LH" (without the quotes).

Regards.
Ron

First of all WinMe IGNORES the old "Config.sys" and "autoexec.bat" files on startup, All the old Conventional Memory managers will NOT work with WinMe......Although there ARE ways to to FORCE WinMe to execute those files.
