Changing the Suspend-to-disk Partition Size
The suspend-to-disk partition size should be 3 MB bigger than the installed
memory. The table below shows the minimum size of the suspend-to-disk
partition that is required for different memory installations. The suspend-to-disk
partition is expressed in kilobytes (1 megabyte equals 1024 kilobytes) since this is
the figure you need when you use the PHDISK utility to create the new partition.

Memory Management Software
If you install memory management software such as EMM386, QEMM, 386Max,
etc., you might find that it creates a conflict with the PC card drivers that your
notebook uses. This conflict can cause the notebook to hang up when you try to
close the Setup utility.
The solution to this problem is to modify the memory management software so
that it does not use the following system and BIOS memory locations:
D000-D7FF
Consult the documentation of your memory management software for the correct
method of excluding these memory locations.
