I was just wondering if anyone has seen this error message when loading Himem.sys through a DOS boot disk image from EasyBoot. I built the disk image from a Win98 boot disk, and I'm using EasyBoot 4.56. I think it has to do with DOS being an emulation from the menu system. Please let me know what you think. Do I even need to use Himem.sys with EasyBoot?

Windows XMS Driver Version 3.95

Not sure about your system. But HIMEM.SYS in c:\easyboot\disk1\ezboot\setup98.img works.
