Hello
I made ramdisk 11mb using dos5.
I tried 32mb edo ram. When I check ram using mem.exe it reports that:
31mb extended memory exist, 4.2mb available XMS memory (as normal ram). And my ramdisk is 10.8mb.
31mb - 10.8mb - 4.2mb available = 16mb seems to be missing. What hapened to remaining 16mb ram?
How can I make this to work using 16mb ram instead of 32mb. Why 16mb of ram is wasted?
(or, equivally, I want to be able to make bigger ramdisk and have more available ram using 32mb edo ram)
Here is current config.sys (booting from floppy ms-dos 5.0, pure boot, only below config.sys parameters used, no autoexec.bat):
DEVICE=A:\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICEHIGH=A:\RAMDRIVE.SYS 11000 /E
