Using Procomm on a Ramdisk
This is a simple way to make this program work on a RAMDISK. It's fast,
and gives less wear to you master disk. In order for this program to work,
you need you current dos version of ANSI.SYS and MODE.COM. It is also
recommended that you have 640K. You will also need to create this
CONFIG.SYS:
device=amdisk.dvd
device=ansi.sys (For graphics)
If you use PCjr then also add:
device=pcjrmem.com
The autoexec.bat copies the PROCOMM.* and you CMD files to your RAMDISK
upon bootup. This autoexec defines the RAMDISK as C:, you may need to
change this. It also uses CONFIG.COM to set the RAMDISK at 300K. Once
copied it asks for the date and time and then boots PROCOMM from the
RAMDISK. You'll notice the great speed now!
IMPORTANT:
If you happen to add numbers or change setup on PROCOMM when this routine
is used, be sure to copy PROCOMM.DIR and PROCOMM.PRM to update the master.
Have fun!
