`DEVICE=` 2.0 and later—Internal

The DEVICE= command loads device drivers into conventional memory. Through the use of installable device drivers, DOS can be expanded to support many features and devices that aren't supported in the DOS kernel. Installation programs often add device drivers to your CONFIG.SYS file for you. DEVICE= can be used only in your CONFIG.SYS file.
