subject: QWK mail for WinXP??

-> I have a user that has run into a problem.  He recently upgraded from Win98SE
-> to WinXP.  Now, SLMR and BlueWave (both for DOS) will not run on his machine.
-> He is getting "out of memory" errors.  Since he has over
700MB, that is
-> doubtful.  ;)

Some I know care also fighting that problem. But I just laugh at them
and say WHY in the Hell did you upgrade to WinXP? OR why are yuo using
such an old DOS program. Those I know, In a Genealogy Library, have no
other choice. They have a quite old DOS program that is a year or
so form being replaced with something newer.
 But I believe the problem is related to EMS memory. I don't think WinXP
having totaly dumped the DOS world knows how to assign it. And I hear
that even some of the New MB's also cannot allow the use if it. I don't
have a solution but will be interested if there really is one as I want
ot pass it on.
