I am trying to run a does accounting package under windows ME but keep running out of file handles. You can't set them in the config.sys for some reason. If you do when you reboot the "FILES=115" line is gone form the config.sys file and you are still left with the same number of file handles.

Any suggestions? [sig][/sig]
 
I've figured it out. Windows ME no longer processes the config.sys. You now have to add the line PerVMFiles=x to the system.ini file under the [386enh] section. [sig][/sig]
