SUMMARY

MemMaker does not find your Windows SYSTEM.INI file if you are running a network installation of Windows (installed with SETUP /N) and you don't log onto the network from your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

MORE INFORMATION

MemMaker relies on the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to find the files it needs to optimize your system. MemMaker needs to read the SYSTEM.INI file to determine how much free upper memory block (UMB) space to set aside for the API translation buffers.

For MemMaker to correctly optimize your systems memory, load the network software from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
