I think (could be totally wrong) that MS-DOS is actually 16-bit, therefore only giving it access to 65kB of your RAM. Really depends on how this executable was made though. Any recent windows OS can't natively run 16-bit programs, so obviously this was restructured somehow, I just don't know if it was recompiled for 32-bit or if there is some sort of wrapper around it that makes it appear as a 32-bit app to the OS even though it is still running under the 16-bit assumption underneath.mediate wrote:... aside from the obvious nostalgia of using such a program and remembering the old order when you needed something like this ... why would you use it?
On a side note, it is totally awesome. Very efficient file manager. Unfortunately, it can't display the sys32 folder in windows 7 ... it "doesn't have enough memory" even though I have 4 GB of ram + another 8 GB swap ... w/e. Awesome file manager.
