EMS Memory(old MS-Dos) in WinXP

This is a discussion about EMS Memory(old MS-Dos) in WinXP in the Windows Games category; I want to play Eye of the Beholder 3, but it says i need 930K EMS memory for sound effects. Any ideas?? I remeber back in the days there was a file called: emm386. exe, withc gave EMS memory. But how do i make XP include it in its startupfiles??.

Don't use emm386...
 
Right-click on the game's program file and go to properties. Go over to the memory tab, and tweak the settings to your heart's content. Note that you will only get the memory tab on dos apps...
 
If you want to change the defaults for ALL dos applications, go to the Windows directory and edit the properties of the shortcut called "_default".
