About EEMM386.EXE

EEMM386.EXE is an expanded memory manager that supports the LIM 4.0 expanded memory specification. It does so by using ordinary memory above 1MB (extended memory) to emulate expanded memory.

The full syntax for the command line that activates EEMM386.EXE is as follows:DEVICE=[path]EEMM386.EXE[size][/F]The items in brackets are optional. Their meanings are as follows:

path is a pathname specification. You need to add the pathname if the file EEMM386.EXE is not in the root directory of the disk from which you boot MS-DOS. For example, if you keep EEMM386.EXE in a directory called \DOS on drive C:, be sure to include the pathname, like this:

DEVICE=C:\DOS\EEMM386.EXE

size allows you to specify the number of kilobytes of memory above 1MB that EEMM386.EXE uses as expanded memory. If you want EEMM386.EXE to use all the memory above 1MB, omit this optional parameter.

/F is an optional switch provided for compatibility with certain application programs that support earlier versions of the LIM expanded memory specification but do not support version 4.0. If your application gives you an error message having to do with expanded memory, try adding the /F switch, like this:

DEVICE=EEMM386.EXE/F
