| subject: | WinME DOS mode startup |
It's been a long time since I've messed with real mode DOS. I'm
usinmg WinME, and have downloaded the real mode DOS patch. What I need
help with is how to setup a config.sys, and autoexec.bat file for
getting as much free conventional memory as possible. Does anyone
have a setup they could show me? I know how to setup my soundcard
drivers, and CDROM drivers, but I don't know how to setup the rest.
I have a DOS 6.22 config.sys, and autoexec.bat file setup on a floppy
disk. The files look like this:
Config.sys:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SETVER.EXE
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM AUTO
DOS=HIGH,UMB
FILES=30
STACKS=9,128
BUFFERS=40
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\GSCDROM.SYS /D:MSCD000 /v
LASTDRIVE=Z
Autoexec.bat:
{at}ECHO OFF
PROMPT $p$g
PATH C:\DOS;C:\
SET TEMP=C:\DOS\TEMP
LH C:\DOS\MSCDEX /D:MSCD000
LH C:\DOS\CTMOUSE.EXE
I know I would have to edit these lines to point to the
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND folder, but I'm wondering about these lines
in the Config.sys file:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SETVER.EXE
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM AUTO
DOS=HIGH,UMB
FILES=30
STACKS=9,128
BUFFERS=40
Should I leave the SETVER.EXE, HIMEM.SYS, EMM386.EXE RAM AUTO line
in there? Should I leave the STACKS, FILES, and BUFFERS as they are? Any
help would be appreciated.
... "What?!? This isn't the Files section?!?"
