Thanks. I found this at the Novell site.
Symptom
IBM Model 95 running fine on 32meg of ram. When the customer tries to
increase the amount of ram to anything greater then 32meg, the server will not
come up. Immediately after "server" is run, an error indicating that the Novell
server requires a minimum of 3 meg of memory is seen.
Solution
The customer was loading a TSR in the config.sys. When the TSR was removed
the server came up normally with the upgraded ram.
It's not an IBM model 95 but the symtom is indentical so this morning I went in
and cleaned up the autoexec.bat and config.sys files and it booted right up.
thanks again,
Jose
