what i meant on how to check the file, i was talking about when i'm on that blue screen you never told me what to do before i hit alt f then x

[peterm]

uncheck the tick box for dos = single
click on ok and restart

Sorry I meant you had to read the file you had against the file I posted.
that is check that 1 is exactly the same as the other

ok, i unchecked the box, it restarted and i'm back to ms dos again

[peterm]

ok I need to take a break for a bit
will be back shortly (sorry)

[sueym]

i did go back to that blue screen, their is one thing that is different.

you have on yours WinVer=4.10.1998

mine has WinVer=4.10.2222

maybe this will help

i appreciate everything you're doing

[peterm]

ok
sorry my wife needed a hand
still no good but we know you have a config.sys
ok another file we need to fin is dosstart.bat
at the c> type in dir *.bat can you see dosstartbat if not try the windows prompt c:\windows>

[sueym]

neither of them had any file like that

[peterm]

sorry but you sure ? can you change to the windows prompt
and type in dir|sort|more this will put them in order and stop the screen
have another look please

[sueym]

ok, the only files found with dos in them from the last thing you wanted me to do are

DOSPRMPT PIF
DOSREP EXE
DOSREP INI

doing the dir *.bat in windows prompt has 1 file

TMPDELIS BAT

doing it on c> has 1 file

AUTOEXEC BAT

[peterm]

ok not the answer we wanted
at the c:> prompt type in edit config.sys
this should load a blue screen in the config file can you see the line
dos = single
If it exists, edit the line to read "REM DOS=SINGLE" (again, no quotes). Save the file by pressing ALT+F, then S. Exit by pressing ALT+F, then X.

[sueym]

it takes me right back to where i typed edit config.sys

i did change it to read what you wrote
