We are running W95,W98,W2k & Wme on a LAN in a DOS box. We are running out of available DOS memory in the PC running Wme only. Does anyone know how to increase the available memory in Wme. We have 614k free in all but Wme, where we only have 597k free??

Dos uses the first 16K for itself. Try getting 4Dos or even a copy of DRDos. each having better memory management

Don't know if this will work on winME...
In config.sys add:
device=c:\windows\himem.sys
devicehigh=for all other devices instead of just device

In autoexec.bat add:
c:\windows\system\emm386.exe noems
