This device driver will make the extra 64k accessable to
Dos. Bringing the DOS top limit to 720k. I use this to activate the 64k
at boot-up. Below is what CHKDSK finds as far as memory. I have included
the source code so that any improvements you make please let me know what
and why you made what ever changes you did. This is released into the
public domain to use modify and most of all learn from. If you incounter
any problems please let me know but don't blame ME!!! The type of system
that I know for sure it works on is MINE!!!. I have a true BLUE PC-XT
with four banks of 256k memory chips and the U44 Module has been changed
to allow this modification to the main motherboard. The U44 chip is
available from ...... CY ATKINSON
5218 Running Bear Drive
San Jose, CA 95136

One other thing this is my BIOS chip in my PC-XT is dated
Nov.8,1982. The IBM part # is 1501512 for this level of BIOS. The
section below is what CHKDSK see's as far as memory is concerned. This
was done by useing the command "P:CHKDSK>CHKDSK.DOC" try this command
on what ever drive you want to it will work on a floppy to be safe.

If you use the utility and give it the command
"PMAP>PMAP.DOC" you can also create your own for your system. Below
is what mine looks like so you can see that use over 100k of memory
resident and still have 611,264 left for DOS applications, also I
am running under IBM DOS 3.2.

I have included a example of my config.sys file the dosmem command
must be the first line in your config.sys file because it does a double
boot but don't worry this is not a trojan if the memory is not available
then DOSMEM will tell you so and continue on.
The command line is "DEVICE=DOSMEM.SYS 704".

Please if you make any changes please let me know you can reach my
board any time of day at 1 919 364-7378.
