Okay, this is definitely the problem. Line 17,

the QSV_TOTPHYSMEM line says 16M. So now, this

is the symptom - I must figure out the cause.

Memory is definitely good and works the same

with two different DIMMs. It must be the BIOS

upgrade or the peer fixpak (8414) and of course,

I'd guess the former. I'll work it, but I can't

imagine why - I've never been able to limit the

memory that OS/2 sees compared to what is

physically there - even if I wanted to. (By the

way, the memory hole 15M-16M is disabled, so it

can't be that). Anyway, if there are any ideas,

let me know. I'm off on the hunt.
