 My DOS box window prompt memory configuration (with WfWG 3.11 started)


The following memory screens were obtained by running:
MEM /A /C > C:\path\MEM31.TXT
at a DOS window prompt, from inside Windows for Workgroups 3.11.

I used DOSMAX, SHELLMAX and ENVIMAX (all part of the DosMax package), to
load BUFFERS, STACKS, FILES, FCBS, LASTDRIVE, the COMMAND interpreter and
the enviroment modules into upper memory blocks.

To see the devices/drivers/TSR-s loaded in MS-DOS mode at bootup time,
open my AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files (included in this archive) with
Notepad in Windows (or with EDIT.COM in MS-DOS mode).

NOTE: Read also MSD62.TXT for technical details about my system, a text
      file created by running Microsoft Diagnostics utility (MSD.EXE).

Running "MEM /A /C /P" from a DOS prompt within Windows 3.1x doesn't
display Windows protected mode drivers loaded in extended memory (you can
only see the total/used/free extended memory provided by Windows memory
manager)!

These are my Windows "DOS prompt" memory screens, using 3 different
memory managers (with all drivers/devices/TSR-s loaded in upper memory).
NOTICE the "WIN", "win386", and the second "COMMAND" modules:
