[ProgSoc] DOS games under os/2

[Jay Banyer <jay@nospam.vma.tabnsw.com.au>]

Hi,

I want to play dos games under os/2. However, when I start an os/2 dos
session, it doesn't have enough memory to run them. I'm not sure the
games will work under os/2 dos anyway, but I don't get a chance to see.

In a dos session I executed MEM. It outputed:

    655360 bytes total memory
    654336 bytes available for DOS
    556240 largest executable program size

   2473984 bytes total EMS memory
   2097152 bytes free EMS memory

   2031616 bytes total XMS memory
   2031616 bytes available XMS memory
         0 bytes available contiguous extended memory
           64KB High Memory Area available

As you can see, it only gives me 2mb of memory. The pc I'm using has
16mb.

Can anyone help?

j.
