Boot directly to DOS when Windows 95 or Windows 98 is installed

If you don’t want to boot directly to your win95/98, some simple steps are needed

  1. modify msdos.sys attributes
    1. attrib msdos.sys -r -a -s -h
    2. edit msdos.sys
  2. replace BOOTGUI=1 with BOOTGUI=0
  3. on the next start, your computer will start to dos
  4. type win to load windows
  5. fyi: autoexec.bat and config.sys are loaded, so you can build and modify your previous dos startmenu to start to dos or windows.

      ofc this is for dos7 as it comes with the win95+. Any game running in 6.22 should be able to start here to, but some exceptions that need loads of available MEM like aces of the pacific.
      Make sure to load ctmouse mouse driver from freedos and shuscdx CDrom driver to save mem.
