2) In your config.sys file, look for a line that says files=xx, where xx is a number. If xx

is greater than or equal to 30, you can leave it alone. If xx is a smaller number or the

files=xx line is not present, remove the old files=xx and add files=100 (or a greater

number).

3) In your config.sys file, you will have to make sure that EMM386 or QEMM386 doesn't

try to use the region of memory that the MLD system uses.

For the default MLD card’s memory address setting (D000h), add (or modify) the

config.sys file to include the following line

DEVICE:C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE X=D000-D3FF

or, if you are using QEMM,

DEVICE:C:\DOS\QEMM386.EXE X:D000-D3FF

For other memory settings for the MLD hardware card please consult Appendix B.

4) Remove from the config.sys and from the autoexec.bat as many TSRs (terminate and

stay resident) programs as possible, because the mld needs the memory. Type the

letters REM in front of the lines that you want the system to ignore. Typically you may

want to “rem” the lines for CD drives, strange peripherals, keyboards, etc.

Side note: be aware that these changes might mean that those devices that need the

“removed” config.sys lines might not function, in which case you could take away the letters

REM from the lines and restart to enable them again.

5) Set the mouse driver to be loaded into high memory (for example, type: lh mouse)

6) Restart the computer.

7) Run a memory manager program such as memmaker or optimize to free as much

memory as possible.

Side note: if the memory optimization program asks you, you will be using EMS.
