It takes that with you when you wont bother to read what you are being told.

I find it unfathomable that someone (you) with the same humble computer
beginnings as I, didnt do his homework, went out and purchased a 64 bit
capable computer with a 64 bit OS on it, rolled the OS back to 32 bit, all
because he didnt understand the mechanics involved with 64 bit computing
and wants to blame it all on Microsoft.

Right now you are letting approx 600megs of RAM sitting out of your reach.

1:123/456, my reading node machine, currently on Linux, but was once
Windows XP.. When Vista released, I upgraded the machine to Vista, all the
Fido Software still worked, not a single Fido program failed to run.
Granted that machine was and is only capable of running 32 bit OS, all the
Fido software was win32.

You should have done your homework and listened to others about DOSBOX or
perhaps VMWARE and you virtualizing a full DOS environment.

4gigs is a terrible thing to waste.

Then again the world will survive past DOS.
