Thanks, Jim.
The idea that something in the "pro" is different came
from the fact that 200 pro and XP pro did not work.
Looking through msconfif (in win. ini & sys.ini)
I see no reference to EMS.
Above that if the machines complaint is:
"memory manager module failed to initialize"
why can't I focus on that.
What makes the "memory manager module" to initialize.
What makes it not to.
Etc.
Any ideas?
