@ECHO OFF
C:\SCSI\MSCDEX.EXE /D:ASPICD0 /M:12 /L:G
C:\WINDOWS\SMARTDRV.EXE G- 2048 (Turn off smartdrv cache for your
cd-rom)
C:\MOUSE\MOUSE.COM

This has worked perfectly for a 486-100 system with 16 megs of ram.
Don't use any mem managers, only himem.sys. Also if you only have 8
megs of ram, don't use smartdrv!
