Nice response Tom. Next time don’t be so shy and really let the language
fly, but ya did have a good point if not good language.
1) Real DOS on bare metal runnin msdos 7.1. I have had this happen on
FreeDOS as well.
2) Config.sys and autoexec bat are the same and nothin there has changed.
Fix: The fix was a simple one yet quite odd, in my opinion. Apparently
while one keyboard will allow me to hold down a key and it repeats, another
keyboard wasn’t allowing me to do it. Not sure why that is. I found out
this was the issue when it was suggested I try another keyboard.
