325D/333D BIOS Patch for QEMM VIDRAM utility
This patch, installed as a device driver in CONFIG.SYS, fixes an anomaly
in the system BIOS that effectively disables Quarterdeck's VIDRAM utility
(which runs under QEMM and extends conventional memory by 96K by using
graphics memory).
Installation is very easy. A "DEVICE=QEMMFIX.SYS" line should be added
to CONFIG.SYS _before_ the line which installs QEMM. For example,
CONFIG.SYS may look like the following:
DEVICE=\utils\qemm\QEMM386.SYS RAM AdapterRAM=CC00-CE00
SHELL=\dos\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS /e:1000 /p
BUFFERS=5
FILES=30
The patch should be installed so CONFIG.SYS now looks like this:
DEVICE=QEMMFIX.SYS
DEVICE=\utils\qemm\QEMM386.SYS RAM AdapterRAM=CC00-CE00
SHELL=\dos\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS /e:1000 /p
BUFFERS=5
FILES=30
Please report any problems encountered using this patch to Dell Computer
Corp. Technical Support.
