        "device=c:\DOS\himem.sys" 
      In order to work well with emm386, remove the argument "NOEMS" as  
	"device=c:\dos\emm386"
      or edit it as 
	"device=c:\dos\emm386 x=d000-d3ff"
      or remark it as
	"rem device=c:\dos\emm386"	
   
      To load the enabler program, type

      CARDGO [/iXX][/mXXXX][/?]

      in DOS command line, or

      DEVICE=[PATHNAME]RTPCI.EXE [/iXX][/mXXXX]
      DEVICE=[PATHNAME]RTBIOS.SYS

      in config.sys file.

      where:

      [/iXX]     This specifies the hardware interrupt (IRQ) where your
               card will be indicated.
               The valid IRQs are 0-15.

      [/pXXXX]  This specifies the IO Base address. The valid
