Also remember that windows provides DPMI memory itself, I don't use '95 yet :) so maybe someone else can tell you how this works. > Memoria total 65.536K 63.955K 1.581K > Try running mem /c and see what programs are using what memory but remember if your running this under windows (in a dos box) then windows itself will be using up some of the memory. Again try running these from true dos, not a dos box. I'm not sure but I think that also only states you have 64mb installed on your machine not 80mb.
