WINDOWS 95 MEMORY CONFIGURATION
To help solve your current memory related problems with Windows'95
and your DOS based game please try the following procedure.
Double-click on the DOS Prompt icon.
Type,
copy c:\config.sys c:\config.old
copy c:\autoexec.bat c:\autoexec.old
Now type,
edit c:\config.sys
Windows'95 handles all use of the soundcard, CD-ROM drive and
mouse, therefore there is no need to load real-mode drivers
for these unless Windows has no equivalent 32bit drivers for
your hardware. Change the CONFIG.SYS file to read as follows.
device=c:\windows\himem.sys
device=c:\windows\emm386.exe ram i=e000-efff i=b000-b7ff
dos=high,umb
country=044,850,c:\windows\command\country.sys
French users should change line 4 to read,
country=033,850,c:\windows\command\country.sys
German users should use,
country=049,850,c:\windows\command\country.sys
American users need not include this line.
All other territories should check their Windows'95 manual for the
correct country codes.
Now select FILE then choose EXIT. Save the file on exit and then type,
edit c:\autoexec.bat
Change this file to read,
@echo off
prompt $p$g
path=c:\windows;c:\windows\command;c:\
loadhigh c:\windows\command\keyb uk,,c:\windows\command\keyboard.sys
French users should change line 4 to read,
loadhigh c:\windows\command\keyb fr,,c:\windows\command\keyboard.sys
German users should use the line,
loadhigh c:\windows\command\keyb gr,,c:\windows\command\keyboard.sys
American users need not include line 4.
All other territories should check their Windows'95 manual for the
correct keyboard language code.
Now select FILE then choose EXIT. Save the file on exit.
Now reboot the computer and run the game.
IMPORTANT!!!!
Please note: If you require special real-mode drivers to access
your hard drive and/or CDROM drive, then please load these
according to the existing lines in CONFIG.OLD and AUTOEXEC.OLD.
MicroProse warn you that changing your startup files on the hard
drive may not allow some programs/hardware to run and we would
ask that you change these files at your own discretion. If you
should encounter any problems rename the files CONFIG.OLD and
AUTOEXEC.OLD as CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT to restore the original
configuration.
