IIRC xx16.sys ist for FAT16 while xx32.sys has support for FAT16 and FAT32.

Try replacing EMM386 EXE and use the updated JEMM386 EXE from www.japheth.de - that might be more compatible to your Bochs. Do also read the docs - if you find that you need specific command line options to make JEMM386 behave right, please let us know which ones you needed. > However I want to load Turbo C++ 3.0 IDE aswell. > None of the options 1, 2, 3 were able to load Turbo C++ > 3.0 IDE. I type tc.exe and nothing happens. I just see > the command prompt again. This is a known problem: The IDE says it wants, say, 1.2 MB of DOS RAM. It expects DOS to give it 0.2 MB (the part after the decimal point) and a DOS extender to give it 1 MB more. FreeDOS 1.0 simply reasoned "you do not have 1.2 MB free in your 640 kB of DOS memory, so the IDE cannot run". However, there is a simple fix for this: Please use the KERNEL SYS of a newer version, for example http://rugxulo.googlepages.com/ instead of your normal kernel sys (in the root directory). Newer versions are aware of the exotic style of the TC3 IDE and can run it without problems :-).

[Freedos-user] HELP: Turbo C++ 3.0 won't run
Am using latest FreeDOS 1.0 version, from BASECD.iso. 1. Load FreeDOS with EMM386, no EMS (most UMBs), max RAM free 2. Load FreeDOS with EMM386+EMS and SHARE 3. Load FreeDOS including HIMEM XMS-memory driver 4. Load FreeDOS without drivers When I try 1 & 2 options, Turbo C++ 3.0 commandline compiler reboots my Bochs. When I load option 3, then Turbo C++ 3.0 commandline compiler works 100%, compiles all my graphics example code and the built exe runs perfectly. However I want to load Turbo C++ 3.0 IDE aswell. None of the options 1, 2, 3 were able to load Turbo C++ 3.0 IDE. I type tc.exe and nothing happens. I just see the command prompt again. _ Helping your favorite cause is as easy as instant messaging.
