I'm beginning to wonder if maybe this is some IBM conspiracy to get people to use OS/2. I was debugging somebody else's program on my TP750. The program was overlaid so it'd fit in <600k of memory. Of course after compiling and linking it it wouldn't run. I didn't know if the overlaying was the problem, or if there was another bug in the program. Solution? I use OS/2 so I changed my DOS box setting to mono video mode. That gives DOS programs 700k or so of free memory. I compiled it without overlays and ran it (650k RAM required to run). Decided it was a bug in the program. OS/2 has support for my PCMCIA modem, audio, SB emulation, etc. all installed. Those drivers just don't take any of the lower 640k needed by DOS programs. -- John H.
