Does that require EMS? Or are you just trying to save RAM by using UMBs? > As soon as I do a ping www.yahoo.com, I get a different crash and it > is a hard crash involving again jemm386. > > Are there special flags that are needed on jemm or himemx? Not sure, but "usually" it seems to be safer to use "X=TEST I=TEST" in there. The README.TXT says that the ultra-safest setting (but probably fairly useless for real-world use) is "X=A000-FFFF NOHI NOVME NOINVLPG". It goes on to say, "This is the safest combination. If this doesn't work, Jemm most likely isn't compatible with the current DOS/BIOS." So I would try testing some more. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
