2309 1999-07-02 23:35:00 Hi,

I want to play a dos game in windows 95.
When I try and start it up from the dos prompt I get a message saying that I need 537,600 bytes of core memory and an additional 1,536,000 of expanded memory. My system has 620K of conventional memory free, so I don't understand the first problem. This is what my config.sys says:

DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS.001\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS.001\EMM386.EXE NOEMS
DOS=HIGH,UMB
REM DEVICE=C:\HXCD-ROM\LTNIDE.SYS /D:MSCD000
REM DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS.001\AD1816.EXE /W

I know my problem is probably the noems statement, but this is what gives me so much conventional memory as when I took it off I only had like 560K.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you.
