Quick Question about Deskmate as I havent even really played with it / set it up.

Does the version of DOS matter if installing Deskmate? If I have DOS 5 installed, can I only install certain versions?

Finally, I see that 3.01 was for the Tandy 1000TL / TL2. Does that mean I could install up to 3.05 on a TL?

Finally, what is the latest version you can run on a 1000SL?
 
I tried to install 3.05 on my TL with DOS 5 installed. Wont run. When I enter desk and it goes to start, I get a memory error....

Like an "out of memory" error? How much DOS memory do you have free? ("mem /c")

I have Deskmate 3.05 installed on my 1000HX which is running PC-DOS 7.0.1 (aka PC-DOS 2000) and while I can't say I've done much with it it seems to work fine. I do have a custom memory card that gives me 615k of free conventional DOS memory, however?
