- Help!
- I have been having a lot of memory problems lately.
- Having a mere 40 meg HD, I have recently done my best to
- transfer everything I own to Floppies that does not need
- to be on the drive, and zippng some files that I dont use daily.
- This included taking some of my window apps and even storing them on
- floppies. BUT:
-
- It didnt work! Believe it or not, It still says I have only 385K
- of memory available, in both windows and dos.
- it tells me 41.8M total, 385 available.
- yet, in doing a directory by directory manual
- addition of used memory, I only come up with 27.3M in use!!!
- What the hell happened to my other 14 megs?
- Any help is greatly appreciated.
