- Modify Your CONFIG.SYS
-
- Adding more buffers to The BUFFERS = XX in your hard disk
- CONFIG.SYS will increase the hard disk operations. Buffers hold
- information read from or written to the hard disk. DOS checks the
- buffer's content each time information is requested from the hard
- disk. Each buffer represents 512 Bytes. A maximum of 99 buffers
- can be used.
-
- Many application software especially data base programs
- require that you have at least BUFFERS=20 or 40 in CONFIG.SYS
- otherwise the program will not run.
-
- If you do not have CONFIG.SYS on the main directory of your hard
- disk, you can create it using EDLIN (DOS Command) or any word
- processing program.
-
- For information on modifying the CONFIG.SYS, refer to your
- DOS manual or some of the tutorial disks mentioned in the previous
- section.
