Hi,

I booted with an old dos 5 disk, and got the same error so it was not
dos. I downloaded a fresh  copy of pbmpl191.zip, and it now works.

There is just one more rather serious problem, however. Using emm386 
with the noems option, I got 628k free. As soon as I remove the noems
and rerun memmaker, I get only 505k free. 

Does anybody know how I can have some expanded memory without paying
such a high price in low memory?

Thanks,

        Brian
