GRID Laptops and Resume Function
BPT
2/6/92
Description:
The resume feature (battery saver) has a section of code in the
Upper Memory Blocks some where between the end of video (usually
C000) and the D000 area. This function may not work if EMM386
is being used due to an upper memory conflict. To see if this
is the problem, set EMM386.SYS to:
EMM386.SYS /E:C000-DFFF /F=AUTO /R=AUTO
Leave the original settings for /B and /K as the were.
Using trial and error, it is possible to use the EXCLUDE option
and keep narrowing the scope of excluded areas to maximize
memory while still isolating the problem area down to its
smallest size.
See page 19 of the "Optimization and Configuration Tips" guide
or page 410 of the "User Guide" for more information.
Example:
Edit CONFIG.SYS to ask these questions when loading:
? "c000 to dfff" EMM386.SYS /E:C000-DFFF /F=AUTO /R=AUTO
? "c000 to d7ff" EMM386.SYS /E:C000-D7FF /F=AUTO /R=AUTO
? "c000 to cfff" EMM386.SYS /E:C000-CFFF /F=AUTO /R=AUTO
