MaxTech NX-32PCI manual Windows 95 Driver Installation, Windows 95 Release

32-bit (PCI) adapter can only function with 32-bit versions of the EMM386.EXE memory manager program (version 4.49 or later). You can verify its version by entering EMM386 at the DOS prompt.

Do not specify the “highscan” option with the EMM386.EXE statement in your CONFIG.SYS file or your system will hang.

If you run MEMMAKER and select Custom Setup, do not specify “Aggressively scan upper memory,” or it will automatically insert the HIGHSCAN flag into the EMM386 command line. This parameter cannot be removed once it is installed. Doing so will cause the extended memory manager to malfunc- tion.
