FasterModeSwitch=<0-or-1>
Default: 0
Purpose: Enabling this setting causes Windows running in standard
mode to use a faster method of switching from protected to
real mode on many 80286-based computers. When this setting
is enabled, Windows responds quicker to hardware interrupts,
allowing better throughput for interrupt-intensive
applications, such as communications applications. In
addition, you should enable this setting if you are using
a Zenith Z-248 system and are losing characters while
typing, or if you are using an Olivetti M-250-E and lose
control of the mouse.
Note: This setting has no affect on 80386-based computers. Some
early IBM-AT and compatible computers do not have the BIOS
support necessary to use this setting. Enabling this setting
on these computers may cause them to hang when starting
Windows.
To Change: Use Notepad to edit the SYSTEM.INI file. |
