Windows 2000 and Old Dos Programs

This is a discussion about Windows 2000 and Old Dos Programs in the Windows Software category; I just installed Windows 2000 on my computer and some DOS issues arose! I have a few old DOS programs that I'm trying to run. Two out the three seem to run fine. However, the one that won't run is looking for the following commands: Files=55 Buffers=40 I did a sysedit and put these in the config.

I just installed Windows 2000 on my computer and some DOS issues arose! I have a few old DOS programs that I'm trying to run. Two out the three seem to run fine. However, the one that won't run is looking for the following commands:
Files=55
Buffers=40
I did a sysedit and put these in the config.sys file and it still won't run! Is there anyone who might know how to configure this? HELP !!!
 
Thanks!

Try inserting them in the CONFIG.NT file in the \Winnt\system32 directory. Config.sys does not apply to NT.
