- Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a
SYMPTOMS
The following error message occurs when you attempt to start an MS-DOS session from FoxPro for Windows using the RUN or "!" (without the quotation marks) commands:
The KB Required value is too large. Decrease PIF KB Required.
CAUSE
There is not enough memory to start an MS-DOS session.
RESOLUTION
Use one of the following workarounds:

-or-
- Free up more conventional memory by modifying your CONFIG.SYS and/or AUTOEXEC.BAT files. Use the REM command to comment out any unnecessary devices or programs, or use an upper memory block manager such as EMM386.EXE to load devices and programs into upper memory.
