***Users with 8 MB ram or better should increase the amount of memory to
be used for EMS when using EMM386.EXE. Remember that numbers
specified should be a multiple of 256.
ex. “DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 5120 RAM I=B000-B7FF”
ex. “DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 7168 RAM I=B000-B7FF”
***Some Machines may have ROM in the E000 range, so you may need to
exclude this area when using EMM386. If you are using an SCSI adapter,
you will also need to exclude its BIOS area when using EMS as well - see
your adapter’s manual for info on finding its BIOS address.
ex. “DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 2848 RAM X=E000-EFFF I=B000-B7FF”
ex. “DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 2848 RAM X=E000-EFFF X=C800-
CBFF I=B000-B7FF”
***You may also add SMARTDRV.EXE to the above configurations to improve
system performance, but it will generally only help those with more than 8
MB of RAM. EX. “C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.EXE 2048”. It is also recommend-
