I've found a workaround for my himem.sys issue. If I load the plop iso with Isoemu dos seems to work pretty well and is effectively as easy as loading it straight from the windows boot menu. Plus, to update to a new version of plop just overwrite the iso file with the new one.

Yep, that's another issue resolved.
Cheers.
Hi,
I know this topic is old but I am seeing the same error in the latest version of plopt (5.0.15). Have tried floppy > plpbt.bin > usb drive > dos 6.2.2.
If I look back in history in the changelogs, it looks like was fixed in 5.0.11 but that version is not available anymore for testing.
It is possible to repost 5.0.11 for testing?

Did some more testing. The himem.sys error occurs when booting on a Thinkpad T60p.
When testing under Qemu - the error is does not come up.
Maybe Plop has problems releasing control of the A20 line before booting the OS on Thinkpads??
