I ran pal.exe under DOS (I believe everyone knows what this is, right? ^_^)
The following message came up: Check CD_ROM .... in J Free 53408 bytes XMS = -1 k Error: XMS is not enough 830k But after I checked with mem, I found that my XMS still had 251,881k free~~ Why is this? |

That's because PAL does not support more than 32MB of free XMS memory. Please use tools like XMSDSK to reduce the free XMS memory to below 32MB before running PAL.

I just used XMSDSK to make a 230000k virtual disk, and it still didn't work
It showed this: Check CD_ROM .... in J Free 53408 bytes XMS = 25977 k FM ..... OK Then it hung, the keyboard locked up, and I could only press the reset button I also tried using up even more XMS, all the way until only about 4000k was left, and it still hung I don't know why?? |

Then that must be another reason. . . After using XMSDSK, the XMS memory test is already passing now. But the other settings are not correct.
