Hi There !

Can you please help me. I downloaded a DOS GIF-ASCII converter from
the following location :

FTP Site  : ftp.wwa.com
Directory : /pub/Scarecrow/Gifscii
FIle Name : DOSGifscii.exe (89487 bytes)

I tried to run the program on my 486 PC but got the following
message  : " Program To Big To Fit In Memory "

I don't know why that error occured (my computer has 4 MB RAM).

Have you got a clue regarding this problem.

Regards

Abdul

I have similar problem too! Try run it from window: i.e use window "run"
or dos_prompt then dosgifscii <giffile>
 The second method works for me!
 But i don't like the file name DOSGifscii.exe because when i download it i though it is a executable file, but it is uuencoded . (should use other extension) .
