MORE INFORMATION
================
The following information was taken from the Microsoft Windows for Workgroups
version 3.11 SYSINI.WRI.
[386Enh] Section Settings
The [386Enh] section contains information used for virtual-memory
page swapping; virtual-memory network drivers; and 32-bit disk
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The [386Enh] section can contain the following setting
MaxBPs=<number>
Default: 200
Purpose: Specifies the maximum number of break points (a method for
transferring control to Windows running in 386 enhanced mode) that
can be used by the virtual-memory manager. You may need to increase this
value if you are using a third-party virtual-device driver that requires
more break points than the default value.
