Hi Thanks to those who helped fix my problem with not starting windows....I have it going now, but when it shows the windows splash screen it then comes up with a message that says "Press Ctrl + C to terminate batch file, or press any key to start windows". I dont know anything about batch files so Im apprehensive to play with it. Does anyone have any ideas how I can stop this message coming up every time windows is started please? Thanx.

Yeah, post back with the contents of autoexec.bat. Open it with notepad. Anyways, you sure can play with it. Just make sure you make a backup.

I was curious about this question. This is what I've got in my autoexec.bat file. I do not see a file in Windows directory for autoexec.tsh Help! -------------------- @ECHO OFF rem rem *** DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE! *** rem rem This file was created by the System Configuration Utility as rem a placeholder for your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Your actual rem AUTOEXEC.BAT file has been saved under the name AUTOEXEC.TSH. rem

The autoexec.tsh will be in the root directory (c:\) and not c:\windows directory. It must only contain DOS commands that windows didn't need. Sometimes anti-virus programs are started in autoexec.bat but for the most part windows doesn't need autoexec.bat or config.sys to operate.

MSCONFIG does this when you change the settings in Config.sys or Autoexec.bat.
Open Autoexec.tsh with notepad to see what it contained
