Supporting DOS Applications

DOS Power Management Driver: NORDOSPM.EXE

NORDOSPM.EXE, which is part of the Advanced Power Management (APM)
system when running under DOS, is the DOS NORDOSPM management driver
interface between applications and the APM BIOS. NORDOSPM.EXE must be
installed as a device driver at system startup time.
NORDOSPM.EXE gathers information from the APM BIOS and broadcasts the
information to APM-aware applications. It also monitors DOS function calls and
notifies the APM BIOS when the system is busy. In addition, NORDOSPM.EXE
allows the configuration of certain NORDOSPM management settings at
installation time.
Installation
NORDOSPM.EXE, is installed as a device driver in the CONFIG.SYS file, and
requires ELANAPM.EXE. However, it must be installed after ELANAPM.EXE.
The following would be a typical entry in the CONFIG.SYS file:
device=elanapm.exe
device=nordospm.exe
The driver, ELANAPM.EXE, needs to be loaded first.

ELAN Configuration Driver: ELANCFG.EXE

ELANCFG.EXE is a DOS command line configuration utility that sets various
APM options for the AMD ELAN processor. It is intended to be executed at
start-up, but may be executed (or reexecuted) at any time.
Usage
ELANCFG.EXE <optional arguments>
Optional arguments may be any number of the following:
