In Reply to: Auto starting ArcardeOS from power up. posted by Julo on 7, 2000 at 12:26 PM:
: Please help: How do I alter AUTOEXEC file ect so that windows 98 doesn't load up and ArcadeOS in Dos mode does in its place as soon as I turn on my PC. (for my PC to Jamma.)
right click the msdos.sys file in your C:\ directory.
go to properties
uncheck read-only
open this file with notepad
look for BootGUI=1
change it to BootGUI=0
save the file
right click the file again
go to properties
check read-only
a line to the end of your autoexec.bat file that starts ArcadeOS. Example:
C:\ARCADEOS.EXE
this will start ArcadeOS if it is in your C:\ directory.
if you need to start windows, just type WIN and it will start (if WIN.EXE is in your path).
