WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: A customer using WordPerfect 5.1 under Microsoft Windows received the message "ERROR: Insufficient Expanded Memory For /R." The message did not appear when executing WP from DOS. The customer had 8M of expanded memory. The Expanded Memory Manager was EMM386.SYS which comes with the Microsoft Windows program. The customer used the following switches in the Optional Parameters text box of the .PIF file: /32/R/W-120,*. The error was eliminated by making a change in the Windows Advanced Options of the WP PIF Editor. The customer changed the number for KB Required under Memory Options to 0 (zero).

Another user eliminated the same error by placing 2M of EMS in the WP PIF file. Other users have found it necessary to use at least 1859K of EMS for the /R switch on most systems.
