You forgot to load EMM386 or even HIMEM.SYS! You might as well not even bothered installing that expensive 4MB SIMM stick for all the use you're gonna get out of it.

That's done in config.sys, not autoexec autoexec.bat IIRC

Also anyone remember that joke?

I was more a QEMM kind of guy. Also, multitasking Windows in DOS, using Deskview.
