          TITLE: Crusaders of the Dark Savant or Wizardry #7
   DOCUMENT ID#: FYI-M-1624

        SYMPTOM: SYSTEM ERROR INSUFFICIENT MEMORY SEE MEMORY NOTE 
#1. <-Error message upon launching Crusaders of     the Dark
Savant/Wizardry #7 from Sir-Tech.           

ISSUE/PROBLEM:     
The CONFIG.SYS must have the following two items set in order to
launch the program.  The memory manager EMM386.SYS must have the
/F=NONE switch set and FASTOPEN=0.  In the AUTOEXEC.BAT there can
not be the line MEMMAX -U >NUL nor can you load SUPERPCK.  If any
one of the above mentioned settings are not set as stated you will
get the error message.  

Also this solution will not work on a 286 (or below) based platform
or any machine in which the memory manager HIDOS.SYS is loaded.

SOLUTION:         
You can make a bootable disk by simply formatting a disk in the A:
drive with the /S option, then adding the following CONFIG.SYS and
AUTOEXEC.BAT files to the bootable disk.                          
         
AUTOEXEC.BAT 
@ECHO OFF
PATH C:\DRDOS;C:\DSAVANT (you need to make sure that the path is
                          correct for your machine)
VERIFY OFF
PROMPT [DR DOS 6.0] $p$g

CONFIG.SYS                                                       

DEVICE=C:\DRDOS\EMM386.SYS /F=NONE /K=AUTO /B=FFFF /R=AUTO
?DEVICE=C:\SSTORDRV.SYS (you only need to use this if your
                         drive is compressed)
?DEVICE=C:\DEVSWAP.COM (you only need to use this if your drive
                        is compressed)
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM C:\ /P /E:512
BREAK=ON

HIBUFFERS=30

HIDOS=ON

It is possible to use the CHAIN command in CONFIG.SYS to run an
alternate CONFIG file. This alternate CONFIG file may also need to
have a shell statement to run an alternate AUTOEXEC.BAT (refer to
FYI-M-1113).

If you are not familiar with the above processes, it is recommended
that you do not change your CONFIG.SYS or your AUTOEXEC.BAT to
reflect this configuration on your hard drive.  We recommend that
you simply make a bootable disk and use it when you play Crusaders
of the Dark Savant/Wizardry #7.  You make a bootable disk by
placing a disk in the A: drive and from the prompt type SYS A:. 
This will make a bootable disk then you need to create the
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS as they are above.

This particular configuration of Crusaders uses no Expanded or EMS
memory. Technically, Crusaders should run with EMS but it is not
compatible with DR DOS 6.0 EMM386.SYS EMS memory.
