  16. [I have a new 486/33 and I'm trying to load things into high/expanded memory,
  17. [but I'm having problems. when I load EMM386, it gives me a message that
  18. [expanded memory services are unavailable. does this not work on a 486 box?
  19. [This is DOS 5, BTW. Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

  30. This might be occurring if you're not loading himem.sys first. I believe
  31. this needed for upper memory services.
