Using APS with DOS 5.0
Recommended CONFIG.SYS for 386/486 PCs with 4 meg. RAM running DOS 5.0
(uses a combination of extended and expanded memory):
Note If running in a Windows environment:
•
load SHARE.EXE and INTERCHANGE drivers prior to loading MS Windows.
•
set the FILES parameter to 46 or higher
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /NUMHANDLES=128
DOS=HIGH,UMB
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS
FILES=40
BUFFERS=40
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.SYS
Note The executable EMM386.EXE does not automatically exclude the memory used by
PC expansion cards. You must exclude the memory used by all of the PC expansion
cards by adding an exclusion option to the memory manager invoke line.
For example, the memory manager invoke line would appear as follows when using
a 1784-KT Communication Interface module set up to use address range D400 to
DFFF:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 1024 x=D400-DFFF FRAME=NONE
See the user manual provided with each expansion card for more information.
Example CONFIG.SYS file for expanded memory only:
FILES=40
BUFFERS=40
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /NUMHANDLES=128
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE FRAME=NONE
Example CONFIG.SYS file for extended (XMS) memory only:
FILES=40
BUFFERS=40
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /NUMHANDLES=128
