   I just installed more memory to my computer, bringing it up to 40 meg.
   Now, when I type mem to check, it says 40 meg available, but
   when I type go32, it reports only 32 meg VCPI memory, I've even tried
   Charles's DPMI server, it still says only 32 meg available. Is it a 
   limit of some sort?


The BIOS, in compatibility with IBM's old BIOS I guess, will not report more
than 32MB of RAM.  There may be a way to get GO32 to recognize and use the
rest, but, I don't know it.  Anyone out there know?  DJ?
