TITLE :MS-DOS 6.0: ANSI.SYS Turns Off Menu Colors
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system version 6.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
If you are loading the ANSI.SYS driver, MS-DOS 6.0 multiple
configuration colors set with the menucolor= setting are reset to the
default colors.
More Information:
The menucolor= setting in the CONFIG.SYS file allows you to define
your menu colors. When ANSI.SYS is loaded through one of the menu
blocks, the screen colors are reset. This occurs because ANSI.SYS is a
block device for the console (CON). ANSI.SYS takes over all output to
the console and manipulates the data in an ANSI (American National
Standards Institute) format.
ANSI.SYS turns off the menu colors because it does not detect the
previous state of the CON device.
