Hi,

Hi,

I was looking at a friend PC and they said the £ was not working in DOS.
So I put the below keyb line in a DOS/command prompt, that worked.

  1. keyb uk, ,c:\windows\command\keyboard.sys


But it seems it did not save.

So do I need to put the below in autoexec.bat which is currently empty

  1. LH /L:2 C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\KEYB UK,168,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\KEYBOARD.SYS

When you enter a command manually into RAM, obviously it is lost when power is interrupted.

You're on the right track but you'll need to split up the command lines as follows:

Memory configuration commands go in CONFIG.SYS

Keyboard configuration commands go in AUTOEXEC.BAT
m
0
l
!
