add the memory manager to the CONFIG.SYS file. Follow
these steps:
1. Start your word processing program.
2. Load the file CONFIG.SYS and add the following

For information on optional parameters, see “Using
EMM386SX.SYS options,” below.
Note
You can copy the FMM386SX.SYS file to a directory
other than the root directory as long as you either
enter that directory in a PATH command (for example,
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file), or include the pathname
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file), or include the pathname
on the DEVICE= command line. For example, if
EMM386SX.SYS is in the directory \DRV on drive C,
include the pathname like this:
EMM386SX.SYS is in the directory \DRV on drive C,
include the pathname like this:
DEVICE-C:\DRV\EMM386SX.SYS
If you plan to use any of your expanded memory to
create a virtual disk with the MS-DOS VDISK device
driver, be sure to insert the EMM386SX.SYS command
driver, be sure to insert the EMM386SX.SYS command
line before the VDISK command line in your
CONFIG.SYS file. See your MS-DOS manuals for
CONFIG.SYS file. See your MS-DOS manuals for
information about VDISK.
