My 486 computer is already having 20mb ram but still it's nightmare trying to get enough free conventional memory. I already ran memmaker and put things into high but still I am getting only 509K of free conventional memory while there's at least one game requiring 570K. The computer is equipped with plug&play but there's nothing configurable in bios settings so I have to use dos manager for my SB16 plug&play soundcard.
I know I could get it better with third party programs (JemmEX, Cutemouse etc) but I originally wanted to have "authentic" setup with original stuff of the time 1994-95.
