|1|DisablePositionSave
|2|[NonWindowsApp]
|3|3.1
|4|0 (FALSE)
|5|
|6|
|7|If the setting is 0, then the position and font used in a non-Windows
|7|application is saved in the DOSAPP.INI file when you quit the application.
|7|If the entry is 1 (TRUE), then the settings aren't saved.  But this setting
|7|can be overridden by selecting the SaveSettings On Exit checkbox in the
|7|Fonts dialog box.

|1|FontChangeEnable
|2|[NonWindowsApp]
|3|3.1
|4|1 (TRUE) on systems using Windows 3.1 grabbers.
|5|
|6|If this entry is 1, and you are using 3.0 grabbers, the screen may lose
|6|characters and the cursor may change size/position.  If so, set it to 0.

|1|MouseInDosBox
|2|[NonWindowsApp]
|3|3.1
|4|0 (FALSE)
|5|
|6|
|7|This item specifies whether a mouse is supported when running a non-Windows
|7|application in a Window.  Mouse support for non-Windows applications is
|7|available automatically if you are using Windows 3.1 version of the grabbers.
|7|If you are using Windows 3.0 grabbers, and want mouse support, then enable
|7|this setting (ie, 1).

|1|FasterModeSwitch
|2|[Standard]
|3|3.1
|4|0 (FALSE)
|5|Set to 1 if you are using a Zenith Z-248 system and are losing characters
|5|while typing, or you are using an Olivetti M-250-E and lose control of the
|5|mouse.
|6|
|7|If set to 1, then Windows in Standard mode will use a faster method of
|7|switching between real mode and protected mode on 80286 computers.  It has
|7|no effect on 386 and 486 computers.

|1|Int28Filter
|2|[Standard]
|3|BOTH
|4|10
|5|Increasing this value might improve performance, but might also interfere

|7|data bytes before Windows running in Standard mode assumes that a mouse
|7|data packet is comples.

|1|NetHeapSize
|2|[Standard]
|3|BOTH
|4|8 (kilobytes)
|5|If an application is not running correctly in standard mode on a network,
|5|then you can try setting this higher.
|6|
|7|This item specifies the size of the data-transfer buffers that Windows
|7|allocates in Standard mode for transferring data over a network.
|7|Setting this value higher will decrease the amount of memory available to
|7|an application.

|1|PadCodeSegments
|2|[Standard]
|3|BOTH
|4|0 (FALSE)
|5|This item applies only to 80286's, and only to some of the 80286 chip sets.
|6|Try setting this to 1 if you have a 80286 and it hangs in Standard mode.
|7|If you set this item to 1, then Windows will pad code segments to a 16-byte
|7|boundary.  This prevents the last instruction in the segment from being too
|7|close to the segment lime for some 80286 C2 stepping.

|1|Stacks
|2|[Standard]
|3|3.1
|4|12
|5|If you receive a "Standard Mode: Stack overflow", then you can increase
|5|this number.
|6|
|7|This item specifies the number of interrupt reflector stacks used by the
|7|Standard mode MS-DOS extender (DOSX) to map an MS-DOS or BIOS API from

|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|OFF
|5|The best place to change this option is with the 386 Enhanced icon in
|5|Control Panel.
|6|If you set this to ON and your hard disk/hard disk controller does not
|6|support 32-bit access, then you can corrupt your disk.
|7|This item specifies whether or not to use 32-bit hard disk access.  Using
|7|32-bit access will speed up Windows.
|7|It is best to only set this item via the
|7|Control Panel -- if Windows detects a hard disk that will not support 32-bit
|7|access, then the check box will not appear in the Virtual Memory dialog
|7|box.

|1|A20EnableCount
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|Default is computed by the Win386 loader.
|5|You should not need to change this setting manually.

|3|3.1
|4|OFF
|5|
|6|
|7|If this item is set to ON, it locks the contents of all expanded memory
|7|used by All Windows and non-Windows applications into memory (instead of
|7|swapping it to disk).  Set this to ON only if you are using a disk cache
|7|program that uses expanded instead of extended memory.  This item overrides
|7|settings in your PIF files for EMS Memory Locked.

|1|AllVMsExclusive
|2|[386Enh]
|3|BOTH
|4|OFF
|5|Set this item to ON only if you are getting UAE's or GF's when running
|5|network or memory-resident programs which are not compatible with Windows.
|6|Setting this item to ON renders ALT-ENTER ineffective at toggling between
|6|full-screen and winddowed-screen DOS apps.
|7|If this item is set to ON, it forces all application to run in exclusive
|7|full-screen mode.  This setting overrides all other settings in the PIF
|7|files for applications.

|1|AllXMSLocked
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|OFF
|5|You should never need to change this item.
|6|
|7|If this item is set to ON, it locks the contents of all extended memory
|7|used by all Windows or non-Windows applications into memory (instead of
|7|swapping it to disk).  This item overrides all other settings in your PIF
|7|files for XMS Memory Locked.

|1|AltKeyDelay

|3|BOTH
|4|.025 (seconds)
|5|
|6|
|7|This item specifies how long Windows waits before pasting any characters
|7|after the <ALT> key has been pasted.  Some applications may require more
|7|time for the recognition of <ALT> keystrokes.

|1|AutoRestoreScreen
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|ON
|5|This item only applies to VGA displays, and only affects applications that
|5|notify Windows that they can update their own screen automatically when
|5|notified by Windows.
|6|
|7|The item specifies what the display for non-Windows applications should be
|7|restored by Windows, or by the application itself when it becomes active.
|7|If set to ON, then Windows restores the screen.  This requires more memory,
|7|but is considerably faster.

|1|BkGndNotifyAtPFault
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|ON for VGA, OFF for 8514 displays
|5|Set to OFF if you are using a display with special hardware (8514 or TIGA).

|7|use the same memory area.  The range must be between A000 and EFFF.

|1|ReservePageFrame
|2|[386Enh]
|3|BOTH
|4|ON
|5|If you are not running non-Windows apps that use expanded memory, set this
|5|item to OFF to give more conventional memory to the apps.
|6|
|7|This item specifies whether Windows should give preference to EMS page frame
|7|space or conventional memory when it has to use one of them to allocate DOS
|7|transfer buffers.  This choice is necessary when Windows cannot find space
|7|between 640k and 1 MB other than the EMS page frame space.  If it is set to
|7|ON, it will preserve the EMS page frame at the expense of conventional memory.

|1|ReserveVideoROM
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|OFF
|5|If the text font appears scrambled when you start non-Windows applications,
|5|set this entry to ON.
|6|
|7|If this entry is ON, Windows assumes that video ROM exists in pages C6 and
|7|C7.  You should not need to change this value, because the default value
|7|causes Windows to detect video ROM correctly.

|1|ROMScanThreshold
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|20
|5|You should never need to change this value.
|6|
|7|This item specifies a parameter used to determine whether an area of

|5|the system seem sluggish, but may be needed by some networks.
|6|
|7|This item specifies that Windows should go into a critical section around
|7|all timer interrupt code, and specifies a timeout period.  Specifying a
|7|positive value ensures that only one virtual machine at a time receives
|7|timer interrupts.

|1|TokenRingSearch
|2|[386Enh]
|3|BOTH
|4|ON
|5|Set this entry to OFF if you are not using a Token ring card, and the

|7|accurate time.

|1|UniqueDOSPSP
|2|[386Enh]
|3|BOTH
|4|ON for MS-Net or LAN Manager, OFF for all other networks.
|5|Setting this item to ON will leave slightly less memory for non-Windows
|5|applications.
|6|
|7|If this item is ON, Windows starts every application at a unique address
|7|(PSP).  Some networks use applications' load addresses to identify the
|7|different processes using the network.

|1|UseableHighArea
|2|[386Enh]
|3|3.1
|4|--None--
|5|
|6|Be very careful about specifying a range of memory unless you are sure that
|6|it is not used by an adapter.
|7|This item specifies the range of memory that Windows will scan for unused
|7|address regardless of what may be there.  UseableHighArea= takes precedence
|7|over ReservedHighArea= if you specify overlapping ranges. The values must
|7|range between A000 and EFFF.  You can specify more than one range by
|7|including more than one entry for UseableHighArea.
