Question, this is going to sound lame....but I'll ask anyways. I haven't used 9x for so long I don't remember so don't laugh! But I have a PC that is booting straight to DOS. Not just restarting in DOS, but alwaying boots to DOS. Is this in the autoexec.bat and what is it?
Thanks in advance!

More likely in msdos.sys. See here for instructions on how to edit it:

Make sure you have a line that says

BootGUI=1

That's what controls whether it boots to Windows or DOS.
