Is it some setting in #include <dpmi.h> __dpmi_get_free_memory_information(&info); Warnings: 1) Actually only the first value in the structure is required to be returned; unsupported (by a particular DPMI) will be returned as -1. 2) The values in CWSDPMI are a little wrong for most cases (it's a bug in the way it computes page usage - memory isn't counted as used until it's touched). I can't remember why I haven't fixed this. Probably 'cause noone has complained.
