No ethernet. I took it out. Thing is, there's nothing to optimize because this is a fresh windows install and I am working with only the autoexec/config
that windows produces after dos is installed so it's got essentially nothing in it. This is why I can't figure out why there's a memory problem.
If it has something to do with the fragmentation of the lower 1MB (if I got that right), then I find that odd considering a fresh install but I'm willing to give that a try except
that Fix1MB doesn't seem to do anything at all. I'm probably not invoking it properly but with no instructions around I don't know the right way to use it.
Ah, ok. I hoped it could improve some things depending on the configuration.. MemMaker perhaps making changes the EMM386 line in config.sys.
Including memory of the monochrome area etc., doing modifications to sytem.ini/win.ini and so on. Otherwise, I don't know what is going wrong on this machine.
Maybe changing Himem.sys helps. You could try using that from Win98SE. Just copy it to C: and change the path in config.sys so it loads the new driver.
