Hehehehe. Nope. Goes *zoink* all the way up in a split second. I
couldn't have been more surprised. Was a big difference from the
previous box I used to play DOS games on, a 150MHz Pentium with 32MB
RAM. (Which is pretty fast with DOS too, incidentally. Its
SoundBlaster AWE64 absolutely rocked the MIDI support in DOS games too.)
Peace... Sridhar
I tried to time it, but I couldn't. There
was not enough time between
the end of POST and when the C:\> prompt came up that I couldn't
physically click the stopwatch fast enough. And that's *with* a whole
load of crap running on startup, including QEMM. I'd guess maybe 1/5
second.
Aha! I call BS! I load QEMM on startup too, and it pauses for a good
2-3 seconds while it counts up 256MB of RAM.
