I guess that it happens only after a reboot and never after
power-up, doesn't it? Please try!

If so, that would mean that the VDISK signature at the beginning 
of HMA survives POST. Exactly like in my notebook... where I had
to write a small utility to clear HMA which has to be put in 
CONFIG.SYS before HIMEM.SYS. I'll send it to you as soon as I'm
back at home.
