Installing files from option diskettes An optional device or adapter might come with a diskette. Diskettes that are included in option packages usually contain files that the system needs for recognizing and activating the options. Until you install the necessary files, the new device or adapter might cause error messages. If your optional device or adapter comes with a diskette, you might need to install some configuration (.CFG) files or diagnostic files (.EXE or .COM) from the diskette to your hard disk. Refer to the documentation that comes with the option to see if you need to install files. Managing TSR programs (DOS or Microsoft Windows 3.1x) Terminate-and-stay-resident programs (TSRs) are loaded into memory and stay there so you can access them whenever you want. If you are loading or using an application program and receive a message that you do not have enough memory, TSR programs might be taking up valuable space. Check the documentation that comes with each TSR program to find out how to solve this problem. You might be able to remove the program from memory for the rest of your current work session. Sometimes you can change the order in which the TSRs are loaded so that memory is used more efficiently. Or perhaps you can remove from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file the TSR programs that you do not use frequently. See your operating-system documentation for assistance on editing or disabling statements in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Chapter 7. Solving problems 139
