      Information technology all depends on what is listed in at that place, merely WIN98 volition boot and work fine without an Autoexec.Bat file. If y'all rename the file to say Autoexec.999 then reboot your pc it volition work.

      On the run command line, type in MSCONFIG. There are several tabs and 1 of them is the autoexec. Information technology lets you uncheck line-by-line where y'all retrieve you have a problem surface area. Try that. Also, under the startup tab, you tin disable applications thatyou may suspect could be the cause of you problem.

      How did you narrow information technology? Is it hanging on boot or while working? In the second case — it's definitely not an autoexec.

      Well, if it is. Commencement of all look for any *.com files in it. I had a similar problem with dos-sound support "resident" (a3d.com?) for the very first aureal vortex.

      A good advice stated above is to rename autoexec… but some things you accept there can be useful — for dos support nether windows once more. (Mmm! The most useful affair i know is 'set temp=c:\temp' which is more than convenient than the standard c:\windows\temp)

      Remove all TSR (terminate and stay resident)programs from autoxec.bat, type rem before each plan. Delight endeavour to exist more than specific near the problem.

      So you chased the problem downwardly to the AUTOEXEC.BAT.. OK rename the file or copy it to a diskette and the delete the re-create on the hard drive and boot you computer.. If it does non hang y'all were right.. If it does hang the you nevertheless accept the problem…Utilize the Step past Step with confirmation option in the boot option menu.. and that should give yous an idea where you problem is.. Probabilly some VXD driver causing the trouble.. Simply for your information Windows 95 or 98 or ME don't demand CONFIG.SYSor AUTOEXEC.BAT to boot up to the desktop.. These files are used for DOS drivers and Dos mode applications which many users don't want to give upward.. Which they should..
