View source for PREVIOUS.DAT

PREVIOUS.DAT is read by [[RESOURCE.SYS]]. If it's not available, it gets created by a DLL when the PMSHELL starts up. It also gets refreshed if a full hardware detection is run.

==Troubleshooting==
It is possible to get an error that says:
 Exception in Module: Resource
 Trap 0003
It may be because PREVIOUS.DAT is broken. Try erasing it (or backup it or rename it) and boot again.
