Well, the first thing I would check is that MSD.EXE or some other utility shows that you have UMB space still available. It's possible that Speedway was the program chosen by OPTIMIZE to sit low allowing other utilities to be loaded high. An include statement in QEMM will give you extra UMB space to use as well. This can get a little tricky, so before moving Include statements into QEMM, be sure there isn't some device using that memory space. Are you using the configuration editor when setting buffers and other parameters? Depending on your system configuration (386/486?) the number of buffers can make a difference to overall system performance. Yes, a larger disk amount can help, but depending on the disk, it might be a mute point. Try 8 Meg. – 12 Meg. as a starting point. If your application programs are potentially larger, see if 15-20 Meg. will improve. I'd like a better handle on your configuration. Can you e-mail or let me know through the forum what you have. I'll be happy to get it working for you. Reese.
