Those particular files are in the windows directory not the command directory so the lines in your config.sys should read as follows:
C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE
: Thanks for your help but...
: I tried both your ways but I get the same error message and no sound in arcadeOS. Another thing is that I donīt have a C:\DOS folder. Doesnīt really matter as I used your other tip. Man this DOS stuff is tricky for some of us...
: : Yep, its a common problem, DOS stuff sure is a nightmare for people who don't know much about..
: : You are missing EMM386.exe from your config.sys
: : Add these two lines to your config.sys, at the very top.
: : C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
: : C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE
: : If you are using Windows DOS then change to the following:
: : C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\HIMEM.SYS
: : C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\EMM386.EXE
