SYMPTOMS

MemMaker may pause for a minute or longer (appearing to stop responding [hang])
before displaying the "Welcome to MemMaker" screen.

This problem occurs on computers that respond very slowly when MemMaker scans
the A000-AFFF portion of video memory. For example, the NEC Ultralite Versa/33
and NCR Safari 3180 Color Laptop respond this way.
