Where can I set FILES= 150 (used to be CONFIG.SYS)? 1

[mkasson]

I'm setting up an old DOS program on an XP PC. When I run the DOS program, I get the message that it needs at least FILES=70.

Used to be in CONFIG.SYS at the boot root, so I opened CONFIG.SYS at c:\. Surprised to see that it was blank, as are AUTOEXEC.BAT and MSDOS.SYS. Put FILES=100 in CONFIG.SYS and rebooted. Same message from DOS app.

Where do I go to insert the FILES=100 in WinXP?

Thanks.

bcastner,

Exactly! Didn't even have to reboot. (Well, except to remove the other attempts I made.)

Thanks much.
