Using MS-DOS Mode
To start the system in MS-DOS Mode:
1.
Select
Shutdown
from your
Start Menu
.
2.
When the Shutdown dialog box appears select “Restart the com-
puter in MS-DOS Mode.”
3.
Select
YES
.
This unloads the Windows 95 GUI and puts the system in MS-DOS Mode.
How MS-DOS Mode works
When the system enters MS-DOS Mode the DOSSTART.BAT file is run.
DOSSTART.BAT contains any MS-DOS Mode drivers that must be loaded,
including the AudioPCI™ MS-DOS Mode driver APINIT.COM.
Windows 95 will add the necessary lines for AudioPCI™ to initialize to
the AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, and DOSSTART.BAT each time it
loads, even creating these files if they are missing.
