I have enabled the BIOS setting on my computer to copy video ROM BIOS
to RAM (starting at E000:0 to E7FF:FFFF) and wish to prevent cwsdpmi
from using this region of memory.

I have checked the documentaion but can't find out how to do it.

In fact is it possible or should I not bother copying video bios to
ram?

Computer:
    386sx20MHz
    4MB RAM
    VGA graphics card + hercules graphics card.

OS:
    DR-DOS 7.02

Software/TSRs:
    Latest version of CWSDPMI    
    No other memory managers are loaded

David.
