- ID:TS Toshiba 5100 and QEMM-386
- Quarterdeck Technical Note #108

-
- Q: How should I configure QEMM-386 or DESQview 386 to run on my
- Toshiba 5100 (or 5200)?
-
-
- QEMM-386 can be used as an expanded memory manager on the Toshiba
- 5100 or 5200, but may require some changes in the default
- configuration of the Toshiba.
-
- Under the default configuration, the Toshiba 5100 does not have
- any extended memory, but actually has expanded memory hardware
- and an expanded memory driver. If your Toshiba's memory is
- configured as expanded, QEMM-386 will not see any extended memory
- to map and refuse to load, or will not work properly.
-
- To set the machine up properly, run the Toshiba Setup utility and
- configure 640K of base memory and the rest of the memory as
- extended memory. There should be no expanded memory configured.
-
- Once the hardware has been set up so that all of the memory above
- 640K is extended memory, edit the CONFIG.SYS file on the machine
- and remove the expanded memory driver if one is being loaded.
- This file will probably be called EMM.SYS or EMM386.SYS, but you
- may want to consult your Toshiba manual to be sure.
-
- After the expanded memory driver has been removed, you may run
- the QEMM- 386 Install program to install QEMM-386 and it should
- be able to operate properly on the machine for DESQview and other
- programs that might require EMS 4.0 memory.
