you should put those lines in AUTOEXEC.BAT / AUTOEXEC.DOS and CONFIG.SYS / CONFIG.DOS so every time you start a DOS program it´s going to use those setting... but that´s in 98. LOL. XP has them too, but they are hidden system files.

Okay, if you make a shortkut to that program you can change the properties of that shortcut. o to "options" and set your BUFFERS and NUMBER OF BUFFERS. I don´t know where to find the FILES settings, but try to set BUFFERS first. (Could be something with NUMBER OF BUFFERS.)

I hope that helps... :}
