I'm not sure I understand what your problem is, but if I do, disabling 
virtual memory won't help you.  If what you are trying to achieve is to 
prevent DJGPP programs from using the addresses above 48MB mark, then 
disabling VM is not what you need, I think.  That's because your programs 
use logical addresses, while the 48MB is a physical address.

But I'd suggest that you explain in more detail what your problem is, so 
people here won't need to guess.
