Local=<device-name>
Default: None (In a standard SYSTEM.INI file, Setup will set
Local=CON. See "Purpose.")
Purpose: Defines MS-DOS device drivers that need to be local to each
virtual machine. The value must exactly match
the case of the device name, or this setting will not work.
(Most device names are in all captial letters, therefore
this value must usually be in all caps.) If a device driver
is local, a separate copy of it will exist in each virtual
machine, and each will keep different state information.
Most device drivers will not function properly when this
setting is used. An exception is CON, the DOS console
device, which should be local to avoid filling a buffer
with input from multiple virtual machines.
To Change: Use Notepad to edit the SYSTEM.INI file. |
