DOS commands being used. Consult your DOS manual for more
TSRs/Device
Drivers/DOS shells
TSR stands for Terminate Stay Resident. A TSR is
a
program that
automatically executes itself when you start up your computer from
a
hard drive. They are generally installed in your
autoexec.bat
file.
Device Drivers and DOS shells are also loaded automatically. They
are usually installed in your config.sys file.
These
TSRs
or Device Drivers sometimes interfere with games, or
take up valuable memory the game may need, and it is generally
recommended that you not run any such programs, device drivers,
or shells when attempting to install or play
a
game.
DOS Boot Disk
If you are having trouble installing, experiencing unusual lockups,
or other problems that do not appear normal, we suggest you try
starting up your system with a DOS Boot disk. Here are the steps for
creating
a
DOS boot disk. Please follow these steps exactly.
To create
a
DOS disk you will need
a
blank disk the same
size as your A: drive.
Type C: and press Enter.
Place the blank disk into drive A:
Type FORMAT A:
/s
and press Enter. Note: If you are
fo;;;:;l;fEird,:
disks on a high density drive, use
5.25 inch low density disk: FORMAT A:
/s
/n:9 /t:40
3.5 inch low density disk: FORMAT A:
/s
/n:9 /t:80
You will be prompted to insert a blank disk into drive A. Do so if
you
haven’t. Press the Enter
key
when you are
ready.

Once the disk is finished formatting you will be asked
whether you wish to format another or not. Answer N and
press Enter.

You now have a DOS boot disk.
Freeing Up Additional Memory Using the DOS Boot
Disk
Users WITHOUT
a
memory manager: It is not possible to free up
much more base memory without using
a
memory manager, which
allows one to access Expanded Memory (EMS) or Extended Memory
(XMS). Most memory ambitious games require Expanded Memory
(EMS] while Windows usually uses Extended Memory (XMS).
Users with MS DOS 5: Rather than change your permanent system
software configuration, you can use the Boot Disk and the EMM386
memory manager software included with MS DOS 5.0 to
temporarily free up available memory.
