CONFIGURE XPMODE IN WINDOWS 7

Author: Jerry Foote

Posted: 2011-04-19 12:09:20   Link

Ok guys

I have installed xpmode on my windows 7 machine.

FPDn runs fine but when I try to run one program I maintain I am getting

message too many files open, I used to use config to set files and buffers,

How do I do this in XPMODE?

Thanks Jerry

Looks to be quite similar as to what needed to be done since NT:

http://dataease.com/forum/index.php?topic=170.0

Just ignore the references to DataEase and note the change in the second

message.

It's just a text file so try creating it in the \windows\system32\ folder.

You probably have to be an administrator to change/create things there.

Jerry,

I've not setup the XP Mode, I use VM's.

However, in the VM XP, you would need to edit the CONFIG.SYS in the

%SystemDrive%\

If you are able to get a full desktop with XP Mode, START - Run - NOTEPAD

%SystemDrive%\CONFIG.SYS

Thaat's because it isn't on your Windows 7 machine, it's the one inside

the emulated XP machine that XP mode uses that you need to change. You

should have a Windows Virtual PC menu option on the Windows 7 Start

Menu. As opposed to a shortcut for your application. Run that, and you

will get an XP desktop. After ensuring that you have AV installed (MSE

is good), you can find autoexec.nt and config.nt in c:\windows\system32.
