1. Get a disk whose contents you don't mind overwriting.
2. Format the disk using the DOS format command. Substitute B: for
A: if you are using Drive B:.
'FORMAT A: /s /v'
Follow on-screen instructions.
3. Use DOS's EDIT command to edit a config.sys file on your floppy disk.
Make sure that you specify the disk drive in which your floppy is.
eg. 'EDIT A:CONFIG.SYS'
Type the following:
DOS = HIGH,UMB
DEVICE = C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
4. Use DOS's EDIT command to edit an autoexec.bat file on your floppy disk.
Make sure that you specify the disk drive in which your floppy is.
eg. 'EDIT A:AUTOEXEC.BAT'
Type the following:

CD \8BALLDLX
