- Just put REM on line device=himem.sys in your config.sys.
- eg
-
- REM device=himem.sys
-
- If you have pre 5 DOS then you will get a warning about it but just
- do not care about it. After done with stacker remove REM and give it boot.
-
- You could also put REM on line device=smartdrv.sys in your config.sys or
- smartdrv.exe in autoexec.bat. Depending what version you are using.
-
- Most straightforward would be REMarking himem.sys.
