Devicehigh Ü
   ßßßßßßßßßßß

 Loads device drivers into the upper memory area, which frees more bytes
 of conventional memory for other programs.

 Syntax: DEVICEHIGH size=hexsize [drive:][path]filename [x-parameters]
   [drive:][path]filename
       Specifies the location and name of the device driver you want to
       load into upper memory.
   [x-parameters]
       Specifies any command-line information required by the device
       driver.
   hexsize
       Specifies the minimum amount of memory (hexadecimal number of
       bytes) that must be available before devicehigh attempts to load a
       device driver into upper memory.

 Using the dos=umb command
 To use devicehigh, you must also include the dos=umb command in your
 CONFIG.SYS file.  Otherwise, all device drivers are loaded into
 conventional memory, as you had used the device command.

 Installing FDXMS.SYS and a UMB provider
 Before you can load a device driver into the upper memory area, you
 must use the device command to instal the FDXMS.SYS device driver and
 then again to install an upper-memory-block (UMB) provider.  These
 commands must appear before the devicehigh command in your CONFIG.SYS
 file.  If your computer has an 80386 or 80486 processor, you can use
 EMM386.EXE as the UMB provider.  IF your computer has a different
 processor, you must supply a different UMB provider.  One some computers,
 you might even be able to use FDXMS.SYS itself as the UMB provider.

 Specifying a size limit
 If the device driver you specify on the devicehigh command line attempts
 to allocate more buffer space than is available for a block of upper
 memory, your system may lock up.  Try using the hexsize parameter to
 avoid this problem.  In hexsize, indicate, in hexadecimal format, the
 amount of memory the device driver needs.  To find this value for a
 particular device driver, load the driver into conventional memory and
 use the mem /d command.  This method is usually effective.

 If no upper memory area is available
 If there is not enough upper memory to load the device driver specified
 with devicehigh, FreeDOS will load it into conventional memory (as if you
 had used the device command).
