I have been using djgpp v2.0 with cwsdpmi under Windows 95 DOS sessions
for quite long with 16Mb of memory using it all without any problem.
When I've upgraded to v2.01, I've also upgraded my PC to 80Mb and I
expected to be able to use 80Mb of memory as well as 128Mb of hard disk
swap space.
However, when I run go32-v2 to ask how much memory I have I get this
message:
go32/v2 version 2.0 built Aug 12 1996 22:27:23
Usage: go32 coff-image [args]
Rename this to go32.exe only if you need a go32 that can run v2 binaries
as
well as v1 binaries (old makefiles). Put ahead of the old go32 in your
PATH
but do not delete your old go32 - leave it in the PATH after this one.
Set GO32_V2_DEBUG=y in the environment to get verbose output.
DPMI memory available: 50495 Kb
DPMI swap space available: 28261 Kb
Moreover, when I run the DOS instruction mem to ask how much memory DOS
has I get this other message, althoug Windows 95 says I have 80Mb of RAM
memory:

Mayor bloque de memoria superior libre: 0K (0 bytes)
MS-DOS es un programa residente en el área de memoria alta.
The question is: Where the hell is the rest of my RAM memory and my disk
swap space?
If anyone knows the answer, please tell me something or just mail me to
