also, joe... there are several programs you can run to get more conventional
memory (640)...
dos 6.0 to 6.22 comes with memmaker... run this a couple times, toy with the
settings a bit to see what you can pull off... one of the settings may cause
problems with the video reigon of your memory area (cause your video to do funny
stuff or not work in a few resolutions) but will give you 64k of upper memory
which can be used buy the drivers taking up you preciouse 640k....
with other versions of dos (and windows 95) you'll need to do it by hand....
if you want memmaker.. i'll give it to you... it may not work with your version
of dos...

Hi Joe,
Removing drivers depends a bit on what OS you're actually running.
Generally, you'd remove lines from your config.sys or autoexec.bat (on c:\)
to remove various drivers, if there are some you don't actually need.
Networking software on pre-Windows 95 can take a particularly large chunk
of your 640k.
However, if you don't know what the different lines of your autoexec.bat
and config.sys are doing, I'd recommend getting some specific advice from
someone who does understand before you go and change them.
As for IC 3.1, it is discounted to $35 for personal or educational use, and
can be downloaded immediately from http://www.dmsc.com/ic/ if you have a
credit card, or can be ordered from Newton Research Labs by mailing a check
(our address is on our web site at http://www.newtonlabs.com/ ). If you're
unsure whether you'd like to buy IC, you can find out more about it at
http://www.newtonlabs.com/ic/ .
