Re Win95 & Config/Autoexec
I changed from an Adaptec (ASPICD.SYS) to NCR815 (CDROM.SYS)
SCSI card, and made the appropriate changes as follows:-

AUTOEXEC.BAT
 LH /L:1,46544 C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\MSCDEX.EXE /D:MYCD0 /M:15 /L:F
                                                ^^^^^
AUTOEXEC.DOS
 LH /L:1,46544 C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\MSCDEX.EXE /D:MYCD0 /M:15 /L:F
                                                ^^^^^
CONFIG.SYS
 DEVICE=C:\NCRSCSI\CDROM.SYS /D:MYCD0
                   ^^^^^^^^^    ^^^^^
CONFIG.DOS
 DEVICEHIGH /L:1,29376 =C:\NCRSCSI\CDROM.SYS /D:MYCD0
                                   ^^^^^^^^^    ^^^^^

Yet when I reboot Win95 into Win95s-DOS it STILL displays a line
like the above, but with "ASPICD.SYS" and "/D:ASPICD0" on it!

It is using a different autoexec. than EITHER of the above.
All files exist, where they should etc.

- WHERE is it getting it from? <scream>
