THANK YOU, DENNISS:

In MSCONFIG - ADVANCED - LIMIT MEMORY TO . . .

This option was "checked" and had 288 in it.

I changed the 288 to 320 - but also "UNCHECKED" that option.

My Win98SE OS now reads 320MB RAM MEMORY.

SOLUTION FOUND !!!!

Thanks again, good work guys. :>)

I'm just curious as to know who could have wanted to limit it to 288MB in the first place...
