I found the easiest way was to use an old win 95 boot floppy, which doesn't load any himem resources.
All the newer ones from win98 onwards caused himem trouble when I tried them.
Being too idle to make up a custom disk I used the win95 one as I remembered it would do the trick.

On the floppy boot disk there is a CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Rename these and try it again.
