Hi Alain,
In creating JEMM386, Japheth did not merely improve things! He
made FD-EMM386 RUN PROPERLY!
Finaly you agree with me! Michael Devore's emm386 was tested very
very much by the members of FreeDOS and Michael fixed ALL issues.
You misread that ;-) Saying *Japheth* made FD-EMM386
Hi Jack,
HIMEMX and XMGR both improve on the old 30K MS-DOS HIMEM which is
overloaded with obsolete A20 code for now-defunct PCs.Japheth
and I have some differences, but I have used HIMEMX and think it is
quite equal to XMGR. XMGR does have direct support for UMBPCI, as
I note in the
Eric,
Finally I find time to read the changelog examples, thanks!

bugfix: free EMS pages not always reported correctly.
Wrong amount of free space? Or non-free pages reported as free?
Not my department, as I've never used actual EMS -- Ask Japheth.

I DO NOT agree with you, and HE DID NOT fix all issues!
Hello,
As for me and quite a lot of others, I will use
JEMM386, which I consider to be FAR superior and always WILL be!
What exactly are the advantages of JEMM386? Is there a noticeable difference
over FD-EMM386
if I am only using EMS for ramdisks/drivers? Are the bugs dependent on hardware?

1) Under current maintenance, not abandoned like FD-EMM386.
2) Many never-fixed FD-EMM386 bugs ARE fixed in JEMM386, as
Hi Jack,
First of all, let me clear one MISSUNDERSTANDING... The EMM386 that
works ok is from Michel Devore, which was extensevely tested by the
members of FreeDOS.
Most of your answer regards GatesCo product, sory for the confusion

In my previous post about FD-EMM386 being changed to JEMM386, and
to be perfectly clear, those Flat-Ass DISASTERS I noted are not
at ALL in JEMM386 but are in FD-EMM386 and had to be CORRECTED by
Japheth! Sorry for any confusion caused by me -- JEMM386/JEMMEX

FD-EMM386 is very outdated, yes. But when it was still maintained,
updates were often tested by a number of users. With JEMM, it is
more like here is an update, enjoy.
I have reviewed Japheth's Changelog, I believe much of what he
had to do changing FD-EMM386 to JEMM386 are Flat-Ass
Hi Jack, Bret, Japheth, Alain, others,
First, I use and recommend JEMM386/JEMMEX with my UIDE and
other drivers. I absolutely REFUSE using old EMM386 by
Gates Co. because it has (A) Never-fixed BUGS in its VDS
Nobody suggested to use the EMM386 by MS... By the way, MS
