I set up a boot disk with an autoexec and config.sys set up purely for
a dos session. Works like a charm. I have all sorts of problems trying
the run dos games from win95, though non-games do very well. It is
multimedia that just doesn't work from win95 for dos apps.

Now, I am trying something else I read about in Windows magazine, p44
in the June issue. I should be able to set up a custom config and
autoexec for any dos application. They gave a step by step approach
that was easy to follow----but I cannot get the new pif file with the
pointers to the custom autoexec and config files to be recognized. I
am trying to get this one resolved. If I can, it would do away with
the the boot disk. Any thoughts by someone out there? I will post the
steps for doing it if anyone has a recommendation on how this proceed.
