What DPMI host do you use?  QDPMI? 386Max? Win3.x?  They all differ in 
the necessary parameters.

Does this error happen when you compile/link the program, or when you run 
it?

Did you try to put ``nodpmi'' into your GO32 environment variable?

You can use RAMDrive which comes with DOS.  There are a few better 
programs on SimTel which will let you resize the RAM drive size without 
rebooting.
