Hi Vic,

win95
VB> When I open a 4dos window I always get the following error msgs..
VB> 4DOS running under Windows 95
VB> No upper memory available, low memory will be used for resident portion

VB> My 4dos.ini is setup to use UMBs, but it appears that win95 won't allow
VB> 4dos to use UMBs for some reason. Anyone know why?
This isn't all too weird, Vic... Does Win95 create free UMB's inside every
new dos-box? I don't think so!
Windows just treats ALL memory as ONE big pool, putting some aside for each
box you open. But this only warrants you some LOW memory, and eventually some
free EMS or XMS, if you configure the box for such stuff. UMB's are NOT
includeed in the deal, alas. This was already the case with Win 3.xx
