SUMMARY
=======
PC Tools PC Shell version 6.0 from Central Point Software may hang if MS-DOS is
loaded into the high memory area (HMA). The conflict occurs when PC Shell
verifies that all of DOS is loaded into conventional memory.
MORE INFORMATION
================

Shell when DOS is loaded into the HMA. To execute PC Shell with LOADFIX, execute
the following command from a DOS prompt:
" loadfix pcshell " (without the quotation marks)
LOADFIX.COM is located in the DOS directory. It can also be found on the
