<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The BASE&nbsp;m</FONT><FONT size=2>emory (LMB)&nbsp;is 
standard always&nbsp;available to any OS (Operating System) 
installed</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and this LMB </FONT><FONT size=2>has</FONT><FONT size=2> 
(</FONT><FONT size=2>always had) </FONT><FONT size=2>a maximum 
capacity&nbsp;o</FONT><FONT size=2>f&nbsp; 640kB&nbsp;and</FONT><FONT 
size=2>&nbsp;which, </FONT><FONT size=2>when running the Win9.x OS,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>requires you to always&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>have at least 
560kB free available</FONT><FONT size=2>&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>to&nbsp;the 
</FONT><FONT size=2>OS</FONT><FONT size=2>, eg in this to your&nbsp;</FONT><FONT 
size=2>Win98,&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>to enable</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>the OS </FONT><FONT size=2>to run&nbsp;</FONT><FONT 
size=2>programs, eg the running is done by pre-loaded or yet to 
be&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>loaded exes, drivers, dlls etc.,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>eg </FONT><FONT size=2>load any </FONT><FONT size=2>program's 
standard&nbsp;operating program&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>files to the 
</FONT><FONT size=2>Upper, Expanded </FONT><FONT size=2>or Extended 
Memory,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>by the program's very&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>small start up 
files </FONT><FONT size=2>(these files mainly function to only </FONT><FONT 
size=2>to kick&nbsp;the </FONT><FONT size=2>program files</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>to other, higher memory areas) and&nbsp;</FONT><FONT 
size=2>that are&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>loaded/to be loaded first </FONT><FONT 
size=2>in the LMB </FONT><FONT size=2>and as such&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>this 
</FONT><FONT size=2>minimum</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>in L</FONT><FONT size=2>MB&nbsp;</FONT><FONT 
size=2>capacity-level (560kB) accounts for the Win98 OS as well.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The reason why I am giving you this brief info on the 
LMB</FONT><FONT size=2>-subject, is that many people's</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>PC's suffer from this "s</FONT><FONT size=2>ufficating memory 
exhaustion problem", but MAINLY because the</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>best Memory-</FONT><FONT size=2>Manager is YOU, eg 
</FONT><FONT size=2>YOURSELF</FONT><FONT size=2>, as the info below will show 
that no program or</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>application </FONT><FONT size=2>can be written for this (many 
have tried, i.e. MM-programs, but not one succeeded).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>It is also acknowledge by many Soft- and Hardware</FONT><FONT 
size=2>-manufacturers (like MS,&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>IBM, Compaq 
etc.).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>This is also&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>not a&nbsp;</FONT><FONT 
size=2>Windows or DOS related problem (what many people think 
that&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>it is), </FONT><FONT size=2>but</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>a mere&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>computer 
hardware-infra-</FONT><FONT size=2>structure's&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>related 
problem, eg the hir</FONT><FONT size=2>achy in usage of the</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>on the&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>motherboard's standard 
available main&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>memory capacities </FONT><FONT 
size=2>(this is not to be confused</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>with the extra&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>RAM that users can add 
to the PC's Memory (Extended)&nbsp;by u</FONT><FONT size=2>sing the 
available</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>RAM-sockets&nbsp;that are standard build on 
any&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>motherboard).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>To fix any problems, Microsoft has written many articles, eg 
the Support's </FONT><FONT size=2>Knowledge Base</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>articles, on this and other </FONT><FONT 
size=2>MEM-subjects.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I have therefore </FONT><FONT size=2>attached a zip-file 
containing some of these articles, eg </FONT><FONT size=2>some 
are&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>for older OSes</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>(DOS,Win3.1) </FONT><FONT size=2>but&nbsp;</FONT><FONT 
size=2>most are </FONT><FONT size=2>for Win95, eg as these articles </FONT><FONT 
size=2>in your situation should not be any</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>different (</FONT><FONT size=2>and&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>be 
the same for Win98).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT

<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT color=#ff0000>WARNING</FONT></FONT><FONT size=2><FONT 
color=#ff0000>:&nbsp;</FONT><FONT size=2>this below </FONT></FONT><FONT

aslo adding the following one line to<BR>the MSDOS.sys files, will make you run 
super fast in DOS and faster(starting programs)<BR>in Win95/98. It is assuming 
that you have the EMM386.EXE stored on disk in the<BR>"C:\Windows\Command" 
folder, so that program(from Win95 CdRom) has to be there.<BR>(note that it can 
have consequences depending on each lines values that will be started 
or<BR>loaded on normal DOS+Win95 StartUp, so make a spare back-up 
copy).<BR><BR>Clear the Autoexec.bat and the Config.sys first, shutdown and 
reboot using On/Off switch.<BR>(This is to make sure the MSDOS.sys is cleared 
from all the above file's references).<BR>Then:<BR><BR>In Config.sys place the 
following lines:<BR>DEVICE=c:\windows\himem.sys
