|- Only if EGA or VGA AND planning to use
| VIDRAMEMS with QEMM - gives 64K more memory.
-----------------
Device=c:\Qemm\Qemm386.sys Exclude=b000-b7ff Ram Tasks=30 NW3
shell=c:\command.com /p /e:384 (Increases environment space.)
Stacks=0,0 <- Remove if unexplained system crashes.
FILES=10 (89 more files are loaded high by Qemm in your autoexec.bat.)
BUFFERS=10 /X (ONLY for MS-Dos 4.01, not for ANY version of PC-Dos 4.x!)
BUFFERS=1 (For Dos 3.31 and earlier; more are loaded high by Qemm.)
Notes: If you have unexplained system crashes, try deleting the Stacks
command and/or the /X buffers command. Some machines and Bioses have
problems with Stacks, and with Buffers loaded in Expanded memory...
If you CAN NOT use the /X buffer command OR load buffers high using
Qemm's loadhi command, use 10 buffers if you run a cache and 30 to
40 if you do not run a cache.
NW3 is only used with Qemm 5.11 and 5.12 and tells Qemm that you
do not intend to run Windows 3. This slightly increases the
amount of available memory.
Remove the exclude statement if you do not intend to use VIDRAMEMS.
The Shell command increases the environment space to 384 bytes.
The files are expanded to 99 in the statement in the autoexec.bat
file.
If your motherboard supports Rom Shadowing, I recommend turning
it off (if possible) and using Qemm's ROM parameter to allow Qemm
to do the Rom shadowing instead. This is generally faster, uses
less Ram and is more compatible... If you do have Rom Shadowing
enabled with Qemm or your motherboard, and you have disk error
problems or unexplained crashes, you might try disabling the
shadowing. This can particularly be a problem with SCSI drives.
SCSI drives often will also need the DMA parameter changed in the
Qemm config.sys line (see the Qemm documentation on this).
