Solve : I do not have autoexec.bat or config.sys !!!? |
|
Answer» The C:\windows\system32\ does not contain autoexec.bat or config.sys . The C:\windows\system32\ does not contain autoexec.bat or config.sys . since you mention C:\windows\system32\ probably you are using windowsXP and not just ms-dos ? in windowsXP they have renamed the files autoexec.nt and config.nt and put them there instead of in the root c:\ where they belong in real dos. what are you trying to do? those two files are textfiles that contains your dos-settings and are not programs. if you have not changed any settings from default, they will perhaps not exist yet. if so, you have to create them yourself with for example notepad. since windowsXP don't have support for real dos like windows98 had (win98 is a better OPERATINGSYSTEM if you want to run dos-things) you probably want to run dosbox wich is a program that EMULATES dos and hardware like Soundblaster soundcards that old dos-games need. Ah yes! you are right , i do have config.nt and autoexec.nt . But they are just full of nonsense , Look at my autoexec.nt : *** REM AUTOEXEC.BAT is not used to initialize the MS-DOS environment. REM AUTOEXEC.NT is used to initialize the MS-DOS environment unless a REM different startup file is specified in an application's PIF. REM Install CD ROM extensions lh %SystemRoot%\system32\mscdexnt.exe REM Install network redirector (LOAD before dosx.exe) lh %SystemRoot%\system32\redir REM Install DPMI support lh %SystemRoot%\system32\dosx REM The following line enables Sound Blaster 2.0 support on NTVDM. REM The command for setting the BLASTER environment is as follows: REM SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 P330 REM where: REM A specifies the sound blaster's base I/O port REM I specifies the interrupt request line REM D specifies the 8-bit DMA channel REM P specifies the MPU-401 base I/O port REM T specifies the type of sound blaster card REM 1 - Sound Blaster 1.5 REM 2 - Sound Blaster Pro I REM 3 - Sound Blaster 2.0 REM 4 - Sound Blaster Pro II REM 6 - SOund Blaster 16/AWE 32/32/64 REM REM The default value is A220 I5 D1 T3 and P330. If any of the switches is REM left unspecified, the default value will be used. (NOTE, since all the REM ports are virtualized, the information provided here does not have to REM match the real hardware setting.) NTVDM supports Sound Blaster 2.0 only. REM The T switch must be set to 3, if specified. SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 P330 T3 REM To disable the sound blaster 2.0 support on NTVDM, specify an invalid REM SB base I/O port address. For example: REM SET BLASTER=A0 *** There's no such line about the driver "MSCD001", how do i create a new file for myself ? can you pls tell me? Quote from: hopefulguy on April 23, 2008, 09:43:56 PM Ah yes! you are right , i do have config.nt and autoexec.nt .yeah hehe... that was lots of comments but the thing is, since your winXP does all the things itself (that dos should have done) there is not much things to set. there is no real dos in winXP after all, it just pretends to be :-) Quote from: hopefulguy on April 23, 2008, 09:43:56 PM lh %SystemRoot%\system32\mscdexnt.exethis line is windowsXP's own version of mscdex that don't need the MSCD001-parameter because it is especially made to just ask windowsxp do its STUFF for it. So mscdexnt don't need a dos device driver in config.sys for the cd - and thereby not need the cddrive-name MSCD001 to connect the driver with mscdex I've read that xp's version of mscdex is somewhat limited though and can't do everything that is shuold so some games won't work: http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=1715 Quote from: hopefulguy on April 23, 2008, 09:43:56 PM REM Install network redirector (load before dosx.exe)those are support for network and for 32-bit dos-applications and such Quote from: hopefulguy on April 23, 2008, 09:43:56 PM SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 P330 T3settings for xp's emulation of the Sound Blaster 2.0 soundcard that is address, interrupt and dma-channels that dos-programs need to know to be able to use the soundcard Quote from: hopefulguy on April 23, 2008, 09:43:56 PM There's no such line about the driver "MSCD001", since xp dont have a device driver in config.sys (or config.nt) for the cd when using mscdexnt instead of mscdex, it don't use a name like MSCD001 for it Cool ! You seem to know a lot about these things. Well i would really like to use a device driver so that i can GET my game to work. I tried xcdrom.sys (like you said) but i don't think its working. Is there any driver for SAMSUNG DVD-RW About that MSCD001 , i'll try to make one up myself. (again,like you said) |
