Hi Doug, look in your used book stores for this book. Dos 6.2 Instant Reference by Robert M. Thomas published by Sybex. It is the best dos book that I have found. There may have been a 6.22 book also. I have not used Dos in a while, but here goes. First if you put the word REM at the beginning of a line, that line will not be run. As we are just trying to get the install program to run. Here is what I recommend you do.
config.sys =================================== DEVICE=C:\EXE\HIMEM.SYS DEVICE=C:\EXE\EMM386.EXE RAM NOEMS DOS=HIGH,UMB LASTDRIVE=F REM DEVICEHIGH=C:\EXE\RAMDRIVE.SYS 7500 /E FILES=55 REM BUFFERS=25 STACKS=9,256 SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /e:1024 /p BREAK=ON
autoexec.bat ============================================= @echo OFF
mkdir F:\TMP mkdir F:\TEMP
SET DIRCMD=/ONE SET TMP=F:\TMP SET TEMP=F:\TEMP SET PATH=C:\MACS;C:\DOS;C:\EXE
REM LOADHIGH C:\DOS\DOSKEY.COM/BUFSIZE=20480 REM LOADHIGH C:\EXE\SMARTDRV.EXE 500 500
PROMPT $p$_$g
You can run the mem command to see if you have enough memory to run the install program. Once you get it installed you can go back and remove the rem's. I did not see a mouse driver, you will need one. Your mouse software should have a dos driver with it. I have to go to the store now. I will give you some recommendations when I com back, some of your setup seems a bit strange to me.
