System Messages

Explanation: The VLM.EXE file can use expanded memory (EMS), extended memory (XMS), or conventional memory. The VLM.EXE file has determined that there is not enough of any one of these types of memory to support loading the VLM™ files.

Action: Check the amount of all memory available. Some memory managers provide dynamic memory pools by converting extended memory to expanded memory or vice versa. Other memory managers require you to configure the amount and type of memory you want. In either case, do one of the following:

Make sure there is enough memory of any one type to support the VLM files.

Reduce the number of VLM files to be loaded, either by using the EXCLUDE= parameter in the NET.CFG file or by renaming the files so the VLM.EXE file does not recognize the .VLM file that you do not want loaded.
