Windows 95 > Fine Tuning Windows 95


Clean your Config.sys

By: Arie Slob

Check your Config.sys, some existing entries may be superfluous, especially when having run Windows 95 setup over the old Windows 3.x The following commands are now executed by IO.SYS as default:

  • HIMEM.SYS
  • IFSHLP.SYS
  • SETVER.EXE
  • DOS=HIGH,UMB
  • FILES=30
  • BUFFERS=23
  • FCBS=4
  • LASTDRIVE=Z
  • STACKS=9,256
  • SHELL=COMMAND.COM /P

These settings will be overwritten by the entries you make in Config.sys.
