You can set the amount of memory that Windows9x feeds to a DOS program 
by right-clicking on the shortcut and then clicking on the Properties 
tab.  Click on the Memory tab and set aside something like 640K and 
check the Protected box.  You can set the expanded memory necessary, the 
extended memory necessary, even the dpmi memory necessary.

Experiment with those settings.

On the Program tab is an Advanced button -- click that and you can check 
boxes to prevent Dos programs from detecting windows.

You might be able to get things working with those settings -- I've 
still got MusicPrinterPlus working, although it won't playback for me.

No, I can't. I get a message that the program needs more memory. And I

I finally found this very nice music notation program. The problem is 
that it runs in DOS. It is so long ago that I ran DOS, that I can't 
remember how to free up conventional memory (I used to be quite good 
at it, 10 years ago...). Something with himem.sys and loadhi, that 
much I remember.
  


Can you run it in a DOS window? (Start->Run->Programs->...->MSDos 
Prompt)?
