Masters,

Does anyone know the meaning of the following parameters:

DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 2048 I=B800-BFFF X=C000-C7FF RAM=B000-B7FF RAM=C800-CFFF FRAME=D000 RAM=E000-F0FF

After DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 2048, what do the rest mean? Where do these hexadecimal numbers come from? What do they mean?

Thanks, everyone!

2048 means using 2MB expanded memory
X means reserved address
RAM uses memory addresses
