Hi,

my application I like to run in DOSBOX needs some settings in the CONFIG.SYS file in an old DOS-enviroment.

I have to set:

BUFFERS=40
FILES=101

How can I do that in DOSBOX or isn't that possible?

Rgrds,

MCardy

This has been discussed billions of times. Always search before posting.
Anyway...: You can't change the files value in dosbox. Dosbox sets it internally to a value that should be enough for most applications.
Try running it and if it doesn't work try creating a "fake" config.sys in the folder mounted as C under dosbox.
