This buffer is used by BIOS to store the unread keystrokes; the standard buffer is 32 bytes long and can contain up to 16 key strokes (each one is a 2 bytes code). If you use to type a command or any other keyboard input before the BIOS (and thus the DOS) is ready to read it maybe you run out of buffer space. The result is a long acoustic signal and the loss of the extra characters you typed. KeyBuf will solve this problems for you.

It will not change the drive for you, just the directory. CDD! acts just like CD except that it fixes these four problems. CDD! is slower since it is must be loaded each time, whereas CD is internal to DOS. CDD! similar to 4DOS CDD. MASM/OPTAsm source included.
