Hi, I'm running a 486 dx with 12 ram and I'm wondering if the dos
boot disk option is worth an improvement in sim performance. I really
don't understand the concept or how to do it, but I noticed some mention
of this on the group and I'm wondering if it will affect the way my
Nascar1 looks and operates.
Thanks for any help.
Aloha, Henry
I did a little more work on this.
I'm now getting choppy (slow framerates I think) using SVGA
so I check my memory and I hace over 9,400 kb of free memory and it says I
need at least 7,367. Does that mean I have enough? Or are the slower frame
rates with SVGA a different problem? I'm thinking the dos boot disk might
help. Yes? No? Maybe? Please see my second post regarding UNIVESA.
Aloha, Henry

Could be an improvement altho I don't think so...but worth a try
You don't really need to make a bootdisk ..
All you have to do is press F8 ( =step by step confirmation .. I hope
my memory serves me right :) ) when DOS boots then install (by pressingY)
all driver needed to play the game. Leave out all unnecessarry drivers
( like the CD driver if you son't use the cd or Soundblaster driver if
you don't use it etc...)
Or you can make a multiconfig CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT
( see "help multiconfig" <----- type that at DOS prompt )
