When you open a DOS box, under WIN95/98, if you click on the system menu (icon in the upper left corner of the window), you will se an option Properties. If you select that option, you will see a bunch of tabs. One of them is entitled "memory". Select it. There are a bunch of combo-boxes. Under WIN95, if my "memory" is right, one of them allow you to modify the size of the Vitual Memory allocated to the process. Under WIN98, one of them allow you to modify the size of the DPMI memory. Play with it and it should fixed your problem.
