EMM386.EXE won't install on Compaq Pentium Pro

Error: Cannot set page frame base address.  

Config.sys looks like this:

device=c:\windows\himem.sys
device=c:\windows\emm386.exe

I have tried various options such as RAM, NOEMS, NOHIGHSCAN, etc. with no effect.  Have tried the option: frame=nnnn but also no improvement.  The config.sys and EMM386 work fine on earlier Compaqs (non-Pentium Pro machines).

I need expanded memory. Yes, expanded memory.
