Help about some procedures in MS Article 314106

[wumply]

1. One such instruction in the article is this: "Check the Config.nt and Autoexec.nt files in the SystemRoot%\System32 folder for non-standard settings."

Question: How does one know or learn what the standard settings are?

2. A 2nd. instruction reads: "Use a REM statement to remark out all entries except the following default entries."

Question: How, exactly, do I use a REM statement to remark out entries?

Are you having any problems with DOS programs?

[wumply]

Nope--I had suspected I was having DOS-program related problems but the program I suspected was NOT a DOS program. I confirmed this from the source of the program. My questions came from the MS article I'd read and I just wanted to get the answers to my questions so I would know a little more in general.

Remark out all entries except the following default entries:
Config.nt
---------
dos=high, umb
device=%SystemRoot%\System32\Himem.sys
files=20

Autoexec.nt
-----------

lh %SystemRoot%\System32\Mscdexnt.exe
lh %SystemRoot%\System32\Redir
lh %SystemRoot%\System32\Dosx
lh %SystemRoot%\System32\Nw16 (only if CSNW is installed)
lh %SystemRoot%\System32\Vwipxspx (only if CSNW is installed)

How, exactly, do I use a REM statement to remark out entries?

REM [entry]
e.g. REM lh %SystemRoot%\System32\XYZ.exe.
