Some DOS programs, especially game software such as "Classmates" and "Tianqing Legend," often require EMS memory to run. The RAM parameter of EMM386 built into DOS can simulate EMS memory. However, it has several drawbacks, such as once installed, it cannot be deleted or adjusted, and EMM386 itself can cause some software to not run properly. Therefore, it would be great to have an EMS memory program that can be dynamically adjusted or deleted.

A few months ago, I accidentally found the TCPOWER program on Teacher Mo's old "Qibu" website, which can replace the RAM parameter of EMM386 to load EMS memory. However, it still needs to be loaded with the DEVICE command in CONFIG.SYS, and it does not have a delete option by itself, so the fundamental problem is not solved. Therefore, I used the DEVICE/DEVLOAD command under the DOS command line to load it, and it果然 (actually) can be run directly under the command line, but it still cannot be deleted. Recently, I switched to the ADDEV/DELDEV program, and this time it is much better. I can use the ADDEV command to load the TCPOWER program under the DOS command line, and after running the program, I can use the DELDEV command to delete the loaded TCPOWER program from memory, and it can be reinstalled/deleted, that is, truly realizing the arbitrary loading and deletion of EMS memory under the DOS command line, which is indeed convenient and practical.

The above-mentioned ADDEV/DELDEV is a very powerful and practical program. It can arbitrarily load device drivers (such as CD-ROM drivers, etc.) under the DOS command line, and can be deleted from memory after completion. It's really great, and I recommend it here.

I loaded tcpower, but the classmate still can't run. May I ask how to operate specifically, thank you.

同级生 requires at least 1MB of EMS memory, so please set the EMS memory provided by TCPOWER to 1MB or more.

Should I set the parameter of emm386 in config.sys to noems?

Is the format for loading tcpower like this:
addev c:\tcpower.exe /f=c:\tmp\swap.$$$ /e=1024 /d=1024 /b=16384

Give it a try, it should work. Also, EMM386 without the NOEMS parameter can also provide EMS, but it requires 64KB of UMB memory.
