Hi Fabio,

In your CONFIG.SYS, found in the root of your bootable disk, commonly
the C: disk, you'll find a line like : DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE.
You 've the next options:

 Delete this line (Not recommended)

 Change it to: REM DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE
 You'll have no EMS, AND no UMB(Upper Memory Blocks)

 Change it to: DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS
 You'll have UMB, IF there is, somewhere in your CONFIG.SYS, a line
like DOS=HIGH,UMB
You'll have none EMS memory

 Change it to: DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 1024

 You;ll have 1024 Kb of EMS memory, usefull for applications like
WordPerfect, Quattro Pro or Lotus 123. The rest of your memory will be
XMS.  You'll have UMB, IF there is, somewhere in your CONFIG.SYS, a
line  like DOS=HIGH,UMB

There is a alternative, when starting your machine, if the message
Starting MS-DOS comes up, press the <Left-SHIFT> key. Your machine
will boot as clean as possible.

Hope this will help.

Cheers,

Remco
