Advanced Programmming Software User Manual

General Information
Often, APS errors are caused due to incorrect configuration of your personal
computer. Verify that your system is configured as follows:
•
CONFIG.SYS
file should be set as:
FILES=40
(or
46
when running in
Windows)
; BUFFERS=40.
•
AUTOEXEC.BAT
file should include:
C:\DOS\SHARE.EXE
•
Extended/expanded memory manager must be LIM 3.2 or higher.
APS runs with most Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) programs. However, some
TSR programs causes APS to operate erratically. Therefore, we recommend that no
TSR programs execute while APS is running. If you choose to forego this
recommendation and you experience difficulties, edit and mark out your TSRs one
by one until you find the offensive TSR. This also applies to device drivers (other
than extended/expanded memory managers).
