After installing the first version of windows 98 upgrade over win 95b, when I booted up the first time it froze with the following error message:"While initializing dosmgr; insufficient memory to initialize windows; quit 1 or more memory resident programs or remove unnecessary utilities from your config.sys or autoexec.bat and reboot". In safe mode I used msconfig to trouble-shoot and eventually found that it would boot normally if I rem'd out this line in system.ini:"localloadhigh=1". Can someone please tell me if I am going to have problems without that line? Does it load everything in system.ini into high memory? What can I try instead? It seems to work fine with that line rem'd, but I haven't tried any dos programs. Another problem I have is that this computer (a Packard Bell) is very slow to boot. It takes a full 2 minutes from power on until it beeps and then I get two quick beeps. Is there a beep code for Phoenix bios 4.04, agoura release 1.20?
