Hi,
If I understand it, one way is some computers have a way to set
conventional memory and extended memory in CMOS.
Another way is to use emm386 switches in config.sys.
What memaker does is assigns memory blocks or ranges to devices loading in
config.sys.
Like, L:"anumber""a coma""another number"
L:"this represents the zone in memory to be used""a coma seperates the two
numbers"
"here is the address whear the device is to be loaded starting at address"
I think that is the syntax, but don't quote me on it.
What you need to know, is what zone to use, 1 threw 9 i think.
I have to say it's not called a zone, I think it's called a region.
the second thing is memory usage of the device=driver being loaded.
What I think this means is the amount of memory required to load the
driver, and how much memory it uses in addition to it's size.
I think I can say it better this way:
"driver size"+"work space for it to use"
="total size required"
I know there is more to this I don't know.
Pete
