Subject: a few newbie questions

I just installed O-dos and have some questions.

1> How do I make more dos memory available for programs. The best I have
been able to do was 578k for largest executable, with M$-dos I could get
615k. MEM shows that I still have 64K UMB's and 32K HMA avalible. I have
played with Memmax +V and can get more but I cant run Windows with the
+V enabled. And speaking of Windows I keep getting "Not Enough Memory
Available" error messages in certain apps that I never got before
installing OD.

2> When I installed OD I also installed the Personal Netware since I am
planning to set up a network in the future. OD installed some stuff into
Windows, so now when I start Windows I get an error about the network
not being there. How do I remove the network drivers from Windows?

3> When I was running M$-dos I used a multiconfig. My son has his own
copy of Windows on the D: drive, and I used the multiconfig to boot to
either windows. can I do something similar in OD?

Thanks, Bob
