China DOS Union

Explanation of the config system configuration file ...take a look here..

What's the command to enter DOS? I'm the greenest newbie....

The command to enter DOS~~ :-(

Under 98? Start->Programs->Accessories->Command Prompt~~

What they mean by entering DOS is that DOS itself is installed on the hard disk, so when the machine boots up it's in DOS, hehe

Moderator, hello. This is the content of my config.sys file, and I've put the content of my autoexec.bat file in the batch file clinic. Please look at the two files together and see where the problem is. Thanks!

The contents of config.sys are as follows:

menuitem=KVD2003
menuitem=JMHDFIX



BUFFERS=22,0
FILES=40
device=A:\himem.sys

Questions for Master Rushi
What is the function of stacks in config.sys? How is it used?
If the CD-ROM driver is VIDE-CDD.SYS, for a single CD-ROM drive, how should it be set in config.sys? What about dual CD-ROM drives? How should Autoexec.bat cooperate in each case?

Also, what parameters can be added to the device and devicehigh commands? What do they mean exactly?


I asked so many questions in one go, sorry for the trouble

Oh right

Also, how many colors are there in menucolor altogether? What numbers correspond to them?

Menucolor (0-15)
For the specific colors, check QBasic help~ ps: I can't find it on my hard drive anymore

My problem is like this:
In the past with DOS622, my CONFIG.SYS was configured like this:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SETVER.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DOS=HIGH,UMB
FILES=50
BUFFERS=50

Environment used: FOXPRO25 (DOS version) UCDOS70 running a financial software package, everything was normal. If the FILES value was too small, then when running statistics it would show "memory error, too many files open."

Now I'm using XP, and using the Super DOS boot disk to get into DOS mode. Since there is no EMM386.EXE file, I didn't set it, and as a result statistics won't run, showing an error similar to the above. Does DOS7.1 have EMM386.EXE?

Yes

Let me recommend another super CONFIG.SYS

DOS=HIGH,UMB,AUTO
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF /Q
DEVICE=C:\TOOLS\UMBPCI.SYS /I=DC00-EFFF /F
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE FRAME=NONE X=DC00-EFFF X=B800-C7FF I=CC00-DBFF I=B000-B7FF RAM M3 D=256 AUTO

XMS is controlled by HIMEM.SYS, EMS is controlled by EMM386.EXE, while UMB is controlled by UMBPCI.SYS and also shared with EMM386.EXE. If removing FRAME=NONE and changing DC00-EFFF to D800-EFFF doesn't make it crash, then you'll get a bit more memory this way...

However, UMBPCI can never reach 631K available memory (at most only 630K, usually 628-629K). If you need that, you still have to use QEMM386 + LOADHI, but the compatibility is too poor.

A few days ago I accidentally logged onto some website, and now every time I start the computer that website pops up automatically. I can't delete it no matter what. I'm using WINDOWS98, and the "Run" command in the "Start" menu has also been blocked by the administrator, so I can't use it. I want to ask how to modify the "startup" command under DOS. How do I delete the malicious website address? Thanks a lot!!
