Changing Settings

   When the Setup program creates the WIN.INI file, it assigns default values
   to the settings. Some  settings that are  listed in this  document may not
   appear in your WIN.INI file.

   There are two ways to change WIN.INI settings:

   . You can use Windows  Control Panel to  change most settings.  This is the
     safest and most recommended way because there is no need to open and edit
     the WIN.INI  file,  where  it  is  easier  to  make  mistakes.  For  more
     information about Control Panel,  see Chapter 5, "Control  Panel," in the
     Microsoft Windows User's Guide.

   . You can use a text editor,  such as Windows Notepad, to  edit the WIN.INI
     file directly.  (Do not  use a  formatting  editor; it  can corrupt  your
     WIN.INI file.) You must use this  method to change the  settings that you
     cannot change by using Control  Panel. After you have  edited the WIN.INI
     file, you must restart Windows for the settings to  take effect. For more
     information about Notepad, see  Chapter 12, "Additional  Accessories," in
     the Microsoft Windows User's Guide.

   Caution:  Always back up your WIN.INI file before you make changes so that
   you can  restore the  original file  in case  you accidentally  damage the
   WIN.INI file or make changes that  cause problems when running Windows. It
   is recommended that you do not change  any settings that are not described
   in this  document. However,  if you  need  to change  additional settings,
   refer to  the Windows  Resource Kit  for  the Microsoft  Windows Operating
   System Version  3.1. Be  careful  when using  a  text editor  to  edit the
   WIN.INI file. Incorrect  changes to  WIN.INI can cause  unexpected results
   when you run Windows.
