A-2 APPENDIX A: USING A MEMORY MANAGER
For the point enabler, the required exclusions are shown
in the following example (using EMM386, this is done
using the X= parameter):
For enhanced mode:
DEVICE=C:\POINTTR.EXE SA RS=4 MMIO=D000
IRQ=9 SRAM=D000,4 WS=0
.
.
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
.
.
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 1024 RAM
X=D000-D1FF
For compatibility mode:
DEVICE=C:\POINTTR.EXE SA RS=4 MMIO=D000
IRQ=9 SRAM=D800,16 WS=0
.
.
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
.
.
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 1024 RAM
X=D000-D1FF X=D800-DBFF
Notice that the EMM386 line excludes the ranges that
the POINTTR.EXE enabler uses.
Memory Managers with Card and Socket Services
To prevent duplicate use of a memory location, the
memory range used by your 3C389 PC Card must be
excluded from the memory manager. To do this, you must
edit your CONFIG.SYS file. In certain environments, the
installation program will add the exclude statement
automatically.
If you are in enhanced mode, 8 KB of the MMIO range
must be excluded.
If you are in compatibility mode, 8 KB of the MMIO
range (MMIO base address default of D000) and 16 KB
of the shared RAM (SRAM) range (SRAM base address
default of D800) must be excluded.
