How to exclude memory areas in the SYSTEM.INI file
TIP
Regardless of whether you are using memory management software (a
memory manager that is loaded in CONFIG.SYS), add an exclude
statement to the SYSTEM.INI file.
IMPORTANT
Be sure to make a backup copy of the SYSTEM.INI file before
editing it. SYSTEM.INI is a Windows initialization file that contains
settings that you can use to customize Windows for your system’s
hardware.
Using Notepad or another text editor, add a statement to your Windows
SYSTEM.INI file to exclude the memory range required by your specific
communication interface card. SYSTEM.INI is located in the \WINDOWS
subdirectory.
1. Add the exclude statement anywhere in the [386 Enh] section. The exclude
statement below avoids conflict with the 1784-KT communication interface
card at an address of D800.
emmexclude=D800-DBFF
2. After adding this line to the SYSTEM.INI file, exit and restart Windows. This
is necessary for the changes to take effect.
