- USING QEMM-386 OPTIMIZE WITH STACKER (QEMM-386 5.x ONLY)
- ========================================================
-
- This file describes the procedure for using QEMM-386 OPTIMIZE with
- Stacker (QEMM-386 version 5.x only). OPTIMIZE modifies your
- CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to load all possible memory
- resident programs and device drivers into high memory. The following
- procedure is designed to be used directly from a SSWAPed boot drive.
-
- NOTE: This procedure is NOT necessary if:
-
- 1. Drive C is not a Stacker drive.
- OR 2. Drive C is a Stacker drive but is not SSWAPed.
-
- For either of these situations, simply OPTIMIZE according to
- the instructions provided in the QEMM-386 manual.
-
- Stacker Version 2.0 Users:
- --------------------------
- If you are using the /SYNC option of SSWAP, this procedure will cause
- SSWAP to ask you if you want to update the changed CONFIG.SYS and
- AUTOEXEC.BAT files.
-
- Select "No" each time you are asked during this procedure. The last
- time you boot (in step 11) the files will be identical and you won't
- be prompted.
-
- BEFORE YOU RUN OPTIMIZE:
- ------------------------
- You will need to know which drive letter refers to your boot drive.
- This can be determined by typing STACKER at the DOS prompt (with no
- options). One of the lines will look like...
-
- Drive x was drive C at boot time
-
- Drive "x" is the boot drive. In the procedure below, the boot drive
- is referred to as "x."
-
- IF YOU ARE INSTALLING QEMM-386 FOR THE FIRST TIME
- -------------------------------------------------
- After booting normally, exit any shell program you may be using and
- unswap your boot drive by entering: SSWAP C: x:
-
- Install QEMM. DO NOT exercise the option to optimize at this
- time.
-
- IF YOU'VE JUST INSTALLED QEMM-386
- ---------------------------------
- STEP 1a Assuming you used the default installation options and the QEMM
- files are all in C:\QEMM, enter the commands below and reboot the
- computer.
- MKDIR x:\QEMM
- COPY C:\QEMM\*.* x:\QEMM
-
- IF QEMM-386 WAS INSTALLED BEFORE STACKER
- ----------------------------------------
- STEP 1b Enter the command:
- COPY C:\QEMM\RSTRCFG.SYS x:\QEMM
-
- AFTER STEP 1A OR 1B
- -------------------
- STEP 2 Enter the command: COPY x:\CONFIG.SYS C:\
-
- STEP 3 Rename the AUTOEXEC.BAT file on drive C to some other name
- using the DOS REN command. Next copy your AUTOEXEC.BAT file
- to drive C by entering:
- COPY x:\AUTOEXEC.BAT C:\
-
- STEP 4 Run OPTIMIZE. Tell it to go ahead with its step 1. When it
- presents you with the options for step 2, press <ESC> to
- return to the DOS prompt.
-
- STEP 5 Enter the following commands.
- COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS x:\
- COPY C:\OPT2.BAT x:\
- COPY C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT x:\AE.BAT
- COPY C:\CONFIG.QDK C:\CONFIG.SYS
-
- STEP 6 Reboot the computer. When OPTIMIZE presents you with the
- options for step 3, press <ESC> to return to the DOS prompt.
-
- STEP 7 Enter the following commands.
- COPY C\CONFIG.QDK C:\CONFIG.SYS
- COPY x:\QEMM\LOADHI.OPT C:\QEMM
- COPY x:\OPT2.BAT C:\
- COPY x:\AE.BAT C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
-
- STEP 8 Reboot the computer. When OPTIMIZE presents you with the
- options for step 3, press <ESC> to return to the DOS prompt.
-
- STEP 9 Enter the following command.
- COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS x:\
-
- STEP 10 Reboot the computer.
-
- STEP 11 Enter the following commands, then reboot the computer.
- COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS x:\
- COPY C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT x:\
-
- STEP 12 If you wish to return to your prior configuration, enter the
- following commands.
- COPY C:\CONFIG.QDK x:\CONFIG.SYS
- COPY C:\AUTOEXEC.QDK C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
