If you have a word processing program that allows you to save
the file as an unformatted, text-only file (also called an ASCII
text file), you can use that program to modify the CONFIG.SYS
file. Start the word processing program, load the file
\CONFIG.SYS, then add the following line to the file:
DEVICE=EMM386.SYS
You can add one or more of the optional switches explained in
the next section to this command line. Save the file as an
ASCII text file, and then reset your computer.
If you do not have a word processing program capable of saving
an ASCII text file, you can modify CONFIG.SYS using the
MS-DOS COPY or EDLIN command. To modify
CONFIG.SYS using the COPY command, follow these steps:
1.
Log onto the root directory of the hard disk or diskette from
which you boot MS-DOS.
2
Type the following and press
Enter:
COPY CONFIG.SYS+CON: CONFIG.SYS
