It requires 607k base mem and 700k XMS - and you *can't* use any memory managers (QEMM, EMM386..). I just can't get that much memory free without using a mem-manager. I mean, DOS is damn necessary (18k) and I guess COMMAND.COM would be useful (another 4k), ULTRINIT.SYS to install the GUS (1k) and we're already at 640 - 23 = 617k. Now I do have Doublespace (44k), (ie. I get 573k mem free), but I can't disable it to run on the non-compressed drive! It's there whatever I do to my autoexec's and config's. So I guess the question is, does anybody know how to disable doublespace, just to be able to use the computer without those 44k in base memory?

I have mine working together, but I believe I need to adjust the settings a bit more. And was looking for others who wouldn't mind sharing their settings. Or is there a DOC / FAQ file for this information? If there is, would some kind soul email me?
