- First off, you can't load HIMEM.SYS high.

- Next, if you are running the ASPI4DOS drivers etc. you do not need to
- double_buffer smartdrv (the latest version - I haven't checked the earlier
- ones). You may want to try using the ASPI drivers to change the bus timing
- and you may also want to try booting clean without HIMEM or SmartDrv.
