Loading NetBEUI or NetPopup in Conventional Memory (108801)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q108801 SYMPTOMS
NET START /NOHI and NET START /NETBEUI do not prevent NetBEUI and
POPUP from loading in the upper memory area (UMA). Adding LoadHigh=No
to the [Network] section of the SYSTEM.INI file also does not prevent
NetBEUI and POPUP from loading in the UMA.
CAUSE
NET START /NOHI prevents device drivers from being loaded in the UMA.
For example, NET START /NOHI prevents PROTMAN.DOS, <netcard driver>.DOS,
NDISHLP.SYS, and IFSHLP.SYS from loading in the UMA.
Network services, such as the redirector (Redir), NetBEUI, and POPUP,
automatically attempt to load into the UMA. There is no way to change this
behavior.
