Out of Memory Borland Turbo Debugger MS-DOS 6.22

Viewed 369

I am trying to debug an MS-DOS 6.22 application using Borland Turbo Debugger 3.1 (Not MS-DOS emulator) but when I try to use File then Open menu item to launch EXE I get Out of Memory error. The executable is 269,029 bytes, but it is packed EXE and unpacks to 449,415 bytes. Turbo Debugger (TD.exe) is 491,808 bytes on disk.

Mem output shows:

I have the following set in CONFIG.SYS:

And the following autoexec.bat config:

Is there any thing I can do to help TD.exe debug this EXE?

TurboDebugger includes several versions:

  • TD.exe
  • TD286.exe
  • TD386.exe

After removing unnecessary device drivers from CONFIG.SYS and still getting an error with LOADHIGH.exe to launch the debugger I found TD286.exe (Despite being larger on disk at 548,939 bytes) managed to debug the program successfully with no out of memory error; and still correctly displays CPU as 80486.
