Config.sys

When I start my system I get 2 errors

Missing or Corrupted files in WindowsEMMS386.EXE--config. sys   line 10

Missing or Corrupted files in C:MTMCDAI.SYS--config.sys  line 12

How do I correct this?

skydrop,

Windows 98 does not require config.sys. If you are not running DOS applications you can stop it from being processed by going to Start|Run, typing msconfig and clicking OK. On the General tab under Selective Startup uncheck "Process Config.sys file."

If you run items under DOS, check the two lines which indicate errors. (You can open Config.sys in Notepad or on the Config.sys tab of msconfig.)

Line 10 should read Device=c:\Windows\Emm386.exe with some additonal arguments (possible noems). It appears that Emm386 has gotten an extra "S" in its name.

Line 12 should read as indicated here.

No Events found!
