I managed to soak up extra memory when installing 98SE by using
Japheth's HIMEMX driver, coupled with XMSDISK:
In AUTOEXEC.BAT:
SET TEMPDRIVE=S
SET TEMPSIZE=768000
C:\XMS\XMSDISK\XMSDSK %TEMPDRIVE%: %TEMPSIZE% /y /t
Gives you a 768MB RAMdrive as drive letter S: The drive is loaded in
the *top* of XMS.
FWIW,
