Try Moving DOSLFN's position in the CONFIG.SYS load order to an earlier position. It may be that the initalization size of DOSLFN is larger than the largest available upper memory block therefor DOSLFN is forced to load low. Try loading the drivers and TSR's that have the smallest footprint last. This may requirer mutiple reboots untill you get it right. The quick way to test this is if you "comment out" anything that is currently loading befor DOSLFN other than JEMM that create the UMB's and see if DOSLFN will then load. If it does then you can play around with the load order untill you get the optimal setup. Stephen
