USING HOT-255 IN WINDOWS 95
CONFIG.SYS
The Install Wizard adds a few lines to the CONFIG.SYS file to initialize
AudioPCI™. If the CONFIG.SYS file is missing it will be created. The
lines added are listed below.
1. DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
2. DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE
DOSSTART.BAT
The Install Wizard adds a line to the DOSSTART.BAT file to initialize
AudioPCI™. If the DOSSTART.BAT file is missing it will be created.
The line added is listed below.
<AudioPCI™ Path>\APINIT.COM
APINIT.COM is the AudioPCI™ MS-DOS driver. It is required for the
HOT-255 to function properly under MS-DOS Mode.
APINIT.COM requires that EMM386.EXE or another memory manager,
such as QEMM.SYS, is loaded. If needed the Install Wizard adds the nec-
essary EMM386.EXE and HIMEM.SYS lines to your CONFIG.SYS file,
creating CONFIG.SYS if it isn’t present.
On the rare occasion a program does not work with expanded memory,
simply add the NOEMS parameter to your memory manager.
(i.e., DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS)
You may load this driver into high memory in the AUTOEXEC.BAT, even
though by default it is not.
(i.e., LOADHIGH C:\EAPCI\APINIT.COM)
Do not remove the memory manager all together. Do not attempt to load
APINIT.COM into high memory when using the NOEMS option if
APINIT.COM fails to run APLOAD.EXE or APCONFIG.EXE.
In the rare case that a program will not work with a memory manager you
will not be able to use the HOT-255.
