[Help] program too big to fix in memory
When I run a somewhat larger program under DOS, this problem appears. How can I solve it? I hope all the experts here can give me some advice1 |

Not enough conventional memory.
As for the stuff in config.sys and autoexec.bat, don't load anything you don't have to. Anything that must be loaded should be put into UMB as much as possible. [ Last edited by Michael on 2005-11-14 at 18:39 ] |

Boot DOS with the MSDOS 7.1 super boot disk, and conventional memory will be over 600KB. It should definitely be able to run that DOS program.

Many thanks to the two posters above. Maybe I changed too much, hehe, added too many things,
but there's one thing I don't quite understand: with HIMEM loaded, memory should be enough, right? |

No, you should also add EMM386.exe to help, only then can you effectively free up conventional memory space.

By the way, what I want to add is PQMAGICE 8.05 FOR DOS, but this prompt appears as soon as I run it

Please post your autoexec.bat and config.sys, and also the output of mem /c.
Haha, that's the good thing about DOS, everything is clear at a glance. |

CONFIG.SYS:
DEVICE=HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF /Q device=EMM386.EXE NOEMS device=umbpci.sys DEVICE=LOWDMA.SYS DEVICE=XDMA.SYS /L SHELL=COMMAND.COM /P /E:1024 DOS=HIGH,UMB,AUTO FCBSHIGH=8,0 FILESHIGH=40 BUFFERSHIGH=30,0 STACKSHIGH=9,256 LASTDRIVEHIGH=Z There's nothing resident in AUTOEXEC.BAT. MEM/C listing: |

Where's the image?
Hehe, forgot to upload it. It says the largest program size executable is 590K, but as soon as I run PQMAGIC (version 8.05), it won't work and gives that prompt! [ Last edited by coolboy163 on 2005-11-15 at 19:08 ] Attachments dos.JPG (33.65 KiB) |

Then don't load the Chinese character support system. That way you'll generally have over 600KB of conventional memory.

I don't understand why the OP wants to load both emm386 and umbpci at the same time

Many thanks~~~ I thought adding both wouldn't cause any problem. Okay, I'll remove it and give it a try |
