[comp.sys.ibm.pc] increasing DOS stack size for MS-DOS v 3.2 ????

feldy@CS.UCLA.EDU (05/08/87)

Is it possible with DOS version 3.2 to increase the size of the DOS stack by
adding a line to config.sys, or some such thing??

Thanks for any help.

Sure can! The format (in config.sys) is :

	stacks=xx,yyy

xx - decimal no. 8-64. no. of stacks

yyy - decimal no. 32-512, size of each stack

The dos3.2 default is 9,128
