Memory mapping

Post by Stefan Nilsso » Sun, 31 Dec 1899 09:00:00



Today i upgrade from 32Mb to 96Mb (what a boost)
so now i wonder about the switch in bios that says something about
memmory over 64Mb in os/2.
Must i enable this switch to get more than 64 Mb.

        That switch Stefan was only for OS/2 2.x, Warp and up simply
don't need it anymore.

Are you sure? I have heard very different reports on it.

Some claiming it's only for early version, some that it still applies to
today and finally some who claim that it affects the speed in how you access
the memory above 64MB (but IMHO not very likely).

1. Chip&Tech Memory mapping

Is it possible to remap the memory between 640 and 1024KB to a location
over 1024KB so that OS/2 can use the memory?  I have a 386DX with C&T
chipset.  (82301, 302 and 306)  There is a big difference between 4 Megs
and 4 Megs - 384K when running OS/2 2.0.
