What is the importance of disabling the Config.sys and Autoexec.bat
screens
in msconfig.exe? Some computers will not start without Config.sys.
Config.sys and Autoexec.bat are "legacy items" in Win98.
Win 95 needed them for certain functions before Win95
loaded. Windows 98 handles all these functions itself
(e.g. manages CD drives itself, not needing DOS drivers
as Win95 used to.)
The simplest trial is to rename these two files something
else and reboot Win98. In standard installations, this
loads everything Windows requires.
