Could someone explain to me how the config.sys file works.  On my
computer, I not only
have a config.sys file but also a config.bat file which seems to contain
similar types of 
information.  However, when I but all the lines from the config.bat file
into the config.sys file
I get errors when booting up.  why?  
Also, is it possible to get on large partition on a hard drive? I have a
72mb hard drive, but 
it's partitioned into a 40 mb c: and a 30 mb d: drive.  How can I get
just one c: drive?
Thanks in advance.
