Question Answer My system hangs or reboots whenever I load CTCM. What should I do? The memory area of your PnP BIOS machine is probably mapped by EMM386 using the HIGHSCAN option and thus, can get corrupted easily. When it does, CTCM will not work properly. To solve this problem, remove the HIGHSCAN option in the EMM386 statement in the CONFIG.SYS file. For example, change the statement DEVICE=\EMM386.EXE HIGHSCAN to DEVICE=\EMM386.EXE where is the directory in which your EMM386 program is installed and are the other parameters in the EMM386 statement.

Question
My system hangs or reboots whenever I load CTCM.
What should I do?
Answer
The memory area of your PnP BIOS machine is
probably mapped by EMM386 using the HIGHSCAN
option and thus, can get corrupted easily.
When it does,
CTCM will not work properly.
To solve this problem, remove the HIGHSCAN option
in the EMM386 statement in the CONFIG.SYS file.
For example, change the statement
DEVICE=<C:\dir>\EMM386.EXE HIGHSCAN
<other parameters>
to
DEVICE=<C:\dir>\EMM386.EXE
<other parameters>
where <C:\dir> is the directory in which your EMM386
program is installed and <other parameters> are the
other parameters in the EMM386 statement.
