Default Re: DOS and 4GB of RAM

Sorry for bringing up this old thread but it was still missing a real solution.

Perhaps setting up a ramdrive
may work; with xmsdsk; and thus
limiting the amount of physical ram
available to DOS.
Setting up a ramdrive did not work for me, but the idea of eating mem is the right thing to do and this tool did it for me:

Add a call to BS_RAM9X.EXE without any arguments to the end of your autoexec.bat

The included readme.txt is in German but as I said, just run this without any args. Will give no output. Add /a to get an info screen.

Tested to work with both Win98SE and PQ DriveImage on a dualcore AMD with 4GB ram.

Regards
