This chapter tells you how to use the following procedures to

enhance the operation of your computer:

Using AUTOEXEC.BAT and other batch files

Changing the processor speed

Using your computer as a network server

Using special VGA features.

If you are using MS-DOS to access your application programs,

you may find that there are commands you need to run

frequently. You can automate the execution of these commands

by listing them in a special file called a batch file. When you

type the name of the batch file and press 

 MS-DOS

executes the commands in the file just as if you had typed each

command from the keyboard.

If you have a word processing program that can save a file as a

text-only file (sometimes called an ASCII file), you can use it to

create a batch file. You can also use the MS-DOS COPY, EDIT,

or EDLIN command, or a text editor, to create the file.

One batch file that you may find particularly useful is called

AUTOEXEC.BAT. Every time you turn on your computer,

MS-DOS looks for the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and automatically

executes each of the commands in the file.
