But how's your first 640K? This error is usually what that means... your first 640K isn't as free as Quarantine would like it to be...
Look at the results when you run mem /c in a VDMSound-enabled command prompt.
Secondly, are you running Quarantine 3.5?

Just make a file called showmem.bat which contains the following line:
mem /c | more
...and drag-n-drop it over the Quarantine "VDMSound Shortcut". this will show you exactly what Quarantine sees in terms of memory.

Anyhow, here's a few more linkies for people:

Well, anyhow, it is/was a cult game, I suppose it's "out there"
If it truly needs more than 620K, that's quite surprising...

I'm suspicious. I've run Quarantine in the past and I assure you I didn't have 620K free. I think something's going on where the game is coming back with a bogus report of available memory. Do you still have the technical requirements? How much base memory does it say that it needs?
