Re: DOS2 freeing R800 DRAM memory
Alex Wulms: The utility is indeed something wonderfull. Though, freeing the memory only works when you have disabled the dos2 ramdisk and when you have not loaded memman. So is this util called 'romturbo.com' and 'ramturbo.com'? Else I'm afraid I don't know which util was discussed. :/ ] So how does the ROM get there in the first place?! There must be some ] routine in the BIOS that gets it there??? That is correct. Do you know which routine that is? Greetz, Patriek -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
