Problem: OS/2 does not recognize >64MB when 128MB installed. Earlier
submission by others: Nov 9, 1999
(http://www.os2ss.com/warpcast/wc4411.html)


I recently bought an ABit BE6-II with 128MB on board. OS/2 did not
recognize more than 64MB. Trying to get to the cause of the problem I
stumbled on the WarpCast submission of Nov 9, 1999 which acknowledged
the situation but did not offer a solution.

As I was unable to find any other submissions containing a solution,
it seemed a good idea to post the solution I found.

It is an OSLDR patch programmed by Daniela Engert, author of
DANIS506.ADD. It's as simple as saying "patch". Thank you Daniela!

This is her patch:
