SYMPTOMS
========

If you are using the Quarterdeck Qemm version 7.02 DOS-Up feature (which puts
some MS-DOS data structures into the upper memory blocks [UMBs]), MemMaker fails
to remove the following two lines from the CONFIG.SYS file:

  device=c:\qemm\dosdata.sys
  device=c:\qemm\dos-up.sys

Both files causes error messages when you start your system.

RESOLUTION
==========

To work around this problem, edit your CONFIG.SYS file and remove the two lines
shown above.
