I am converting an old Foxpro2 DOS app and for reference I have the foxpro app running in a Windows XP VPC. Certain application flows cause a Too many files open
error. Any ideas on how to resolve this? I have tried adding FILES=200
in config.sys as suggested in one blog post but that doesn't work, maybe because this a virtual PC.

I'd think you'd need the FILES=200 in the config.sys for the virtual machine, not the actual computer. – Tamar E. Granor Jul 18 '12 at 20:31

I did edit the VM's config.sys – sreimer Jul 19 '12 at 14:43

I seem to remember that the Windows\System32\config.nt file should contain the settings for FILES= and BUFFERS= on WinNT PCs.
