So I've been able to free up a larger block of UMB (143k) by adding "I=B000-B7FF I=BC00-BFFF I=C800-EFFF" to jemmex. However, fps fb pro 95 still finds 0k of the 8mb free ems. -L On Tue, Sep 18, 2012 at 12:21 PM, Rugxulo <ru...@gm... <javascript:;>> wrote: > Hi, > > On Tue, Sep 18, 2012 at 12:39 PM, Ralf A.
