Guidelines for Running Windows on the Network
Follow these guidelines for running Windows on the network:
• Use a permanent swap file on a local hard drive, if possible; do not use network
directories for swap files. If a local swap file is not possible, consider increasing
RAM to a minimum of 8 MB.
• Ensure that the RAM plus swap file size is at least 10 MB.
• Remove Windows search drives from the workstation AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
• If users are running DR DOS, make sure DR DOS files are dated 07 April 1992
or later.
• If users are running DR DOS, make sure their CONFIG.SYS files install
EMM386.SYS and configure it for use with Windows. See your DR DOS manual
or DR DOS online help for configuration information.
