Hi, while MS Win98 MEM could be called a "standard", I do not agree with:
> b7ff 81920 DOS system code > 9fff 65536 DOS system code Those are video buffers - even if the MCBs mark them as excluded / system code or similar, a note would definitely not hurt. For example: b7ff 81920 DOS system (excluded area) Especially the 9fff 64k sized area (well, MCB is at 9fff, but area is at a000, which is confusing but again MS "sets the standard") could even be recognized as a very particular area: 9fff 65536 DOS system (excluded: EGA/VGA video buffer) or something like that. > b000 1024 COMMAND environment > b041 6640 SHSUCDX program ... > d09f 109808 free Typical Bernd ;-). 100k free but still overloading the mono video buffer w/ UMBs... > 0269 2048 EBDA data area Is it actually useful to move the EBDA there? As far as I remember it does usually allocate memory by reducing the 40:13 value to something below 640. Both locations are inside low DOS memory. Maybe relocation helps because DOS can allocate in 16byte units while BIOS 40:13 uses 1024byte units?
