I am attempting to get a suite of DOS programs running under XP. I have two problems:

1. I cannot get all files to open. This problem was previously overcome by use of the FILES=nn attribute in CONFIG.SYS. What can I do within an XP environment.

2. No matter what permutations I select in Properties/Layout (of the DOS shortcut) the screen generated by my DOS program is compressed into the top right hand corner.

All help gratefully recived.
