bearskin Posted August 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 oh...by the way, I just moved up to WFWG 3.11 so I'll probably have some question concerning that. DOS RULES hahahahahahahahEDIT: I'm running dos 7.10. when I go to file manager I have an autoexec.bat there and when I go to the dos 7.10 directory I also have an autoexec.bat. do I need both of these? which one can I delete? another question.... when I reboot my system it boots to dos 7.10. then I have to type in WIN to load windows. is there a way to make windows load withpout stopping in dos 7.10? in the old win 3.1 I could add WIN as the last line in my autoexec.bat and windows would automatically load. I tried this with dos 7.10 and it doesn't work like that. should I ask one question at a time so as not to confuse anyone? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nerelda Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 LOL I didn't get confused one bit. I'ts been a while since I've worked with that vers of windows and DOS. I do remember that my I also had two "autoexec.bat" and was told that both were needed, but I'm no expert there.As for automatically going into windows, I don't know how to change that. I always had to type in WIN to get it going after booting into dos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bearskin Posted August 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 thanks for the input Nerelda. I know that under DOS 6 you could add the line WIN as the last line in autoexec.bat and go straight into windows but I'm new to DOS 7.10. But alas, when I moved here from Texas I left my DOS 6 disks. Maybe I should drive 325 miles to get them....LOL have a nice day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nerelda Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 LOLhey bearskin....have you tried doing a search for DOS 6? Maybe there's a place where you can download the disks? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nerelda.....I have searched for the DOS 6 disks but I understand that's it's not open software yet. If it's not legal I don't want it.
