Using the METZ Corporate Screen Saver with Non-Windows Applications. If you run DOS applications under Microsoft Windows, and are having problems with the Screen Saver activating while you are working in the DOS window, make sure that METZKW.SYS is installed in your CONFIG.SYS file. This driver (METZKW.SYS) detects activity in your DOS application. Your CONFIG.SYS file should contain a line reading: device=c:\windows\system\metzkw.sys (or the appropriate path) Don't forget to reboot if you have just made the changes to your CONFIG.SYS file. 2. Technical Information about METZKW.SYS. METZKW.SYS uses less than 2K of memory. METZKW.SYS can be loaded high. METZKW.SYS has the following optional parameters: /NOCAD - disables CTRL-ALT-DEL at the DOS level. /NOMAT - disables mouse tracking, should there be a conflict If you were to add both options to your CONFIG.SYS, they would appear as follows: device=c:\windows\system\metzkw.sys /NOCAD /NOMAT 3. Using METZKW.COM instead of METZKW.SYS. If you find that the keyboard activity is not being detected while running DOS applications under Windows, it may be necessary to use the METZKW.COM version of METZKW.SYS because of a few drivers that interfere with the operation of METZKW.SYS. Running METZKW.COM in your AUTOEXEC.BAT after these drivers are loaded, and before Windows is run, will eliminate the problem. The DOS KEYB command and some network drivers affect METZKW.SYS. Both METZKW.SYS and METZKW.COM are installed to your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory. 4. Technical Information about METZKW.COM METZKW.COM supports the additional parameter: /UNLOAD - unloads METZKW.COM from memory unless the mouse driver has been loaded after METZKW was loaded. ****************************************************************** * For more information about installing or using METZ Corporate * * Screen Saver contact: * * * * METZ Software Technical Support * * P.O.
