Hi:

My daughter's game PC used M-e for a while, with 256 MB of RAM, which it
recognized just fine. Due to instabilities introduced by well-meaning but
insufficiently cautious teenaged friends <grin>, I restored the system to
the shipped Win 98 SE. Win 98 SE also recognizes the 256 MB without a
problem. My own Win 98 SE PC also has no trouble with its 192 MB of RAM. I
have seen MUCH more memory than that in Win 98 machines.
