I'm new to protected mode programming and im trying to write a program
that requires alot of memory. Anyway I get an error everytime that says
I dont have enough dpmi memory. Dosn't dpmi support 
up to 256 mbytes vmen. If so how do I use it? Heres some partial source
of what I'm trying to do ( this is for an emulator btw)
UWORD *RAM[0xffffff]

RAM[0]= malloc(0x80000);  /* rom image */
RAM[c00000] = malloc(0x10000);   
RAM[c40000] = malloc(0x10000); 

Someone told me I would need to write my own virtual paging
routines,handles ect, But I dont know where to begin.  Any ideas on what
to do? Thanks.
