Breaking the 600,000 bytes barrier?

4 posts by 4 people · 04 Jun 1995 - 06 Jun 1995

This is probably a pretty stupid question, but if someone can humor me by ansering it: I'm having great trouble freeing up 600,000 bytes of memory in order to run F1GP. My Config.sys looks something like: device=himem.sys dos=high,umb and I have no autoexec.bat. I still am not able to get above 580,000. Using QEMM I get to 595,000 which is still not enough. Can anyone help? I've tried DOS 6.21, 6.22 and 7.0. I have V1.04 of F1GP. Andrea Rosso

Are you running any other software? Like mouse drivers, or sound card drivers? If you are add: device=c:\dos\emm386.exe to your config sys and load all the other drivers high i can get well over 600 free with gplap. splitim, ccpit, etc all running good luck ##################################################### # Chrome D.M.(Chris Cartin) Belfast # # +44 01232 613159 *:^) # # PGP 23a public key on request IRC:Chrome # # "If you could see the you that I see, when I see # # you see me, you'd see yourself so differently # # I assure you...." -- Rollins # #Please note that my opions are my girlfriends#######

I seem to remember that the upgrade for F1GP ( v. 1.05? ) includes a 'make boot disk' facility for just this sort of problem as part of its install program. Fraser.
With QEMM you should be able to free up at least 630.000 bytes. Optimize could do this for you. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (under construction http://www.uni-giessen.de/~gcg4) Code v2.1: GM d H s:->s g+(?) p?(1) au- a20 w(++) v(+) C+(++) UA>++ P?
