  11. A hopefully simple question- when I installed Win 3.1, I used the Win 3.1
  12. emm386.exe, since it supercedes the Dos 5.0 version.  When I checked 
  13. memory, however, I found everything loaded in conventional memory, even
  14. though I do have "Dos=high,umb" after "Device=c:\windows\emm386.exe ram" in my 
  15. config.sys.  I changed the device statement back to "Device=c:\dos\emm386.exe
  16. ram" and, sure enough, my umbs fillled up with TSRs and drivers.  What
  17. gives?  Won't Win 3.1's Emm386 support UMBs?
