Get this. On two machines I am having the same problem. One
is a Toshiba laptop 486/8Mb, the other an Everex Step 486/8Mb,
both running Dos 6.22. When I try to run Memmaker it goes through
the reboot process and all then says "No Upper Memory created" and
restores my original configuration. I tried Qemm 7.5 also and
received roughly the same results. Any ideas anybody?? Thanks.

Try turning off shadowing &/or caching of memory from C800-EFFF (through
the bios's cmos).

Further to a previous posting in which I received the message "NO UPPER MEMORY
CREATED" when running MEMMAKER under DOS 6.2. Here are my critical files. I have
no access to upper memory
The machine is a Toshiba laptop T4400SXC with very few config options. I tried
Cache enabled/disabled. I have no control over shadow rom. Does Anyone know what
is going on here? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
