how can one view the list of all boot files of Windows Me and Windows XP? is there any third-party software that displays all boot files of any operating system?

WinME boots to DOS '8': pretty much IO.SYS & COMMAND.COM - MSDOS.SYS is no longer of much importance to DOS, and is a configuration file for Windows. Once DOS boots, then Windows loads (or tries to)

XP is (of course) completely different, since it has no DOS boot

Computers in the future may have only 1,000 vacuum tubes and perhaps only weigh 1 1/2 tons.

Good info there in #1 & #2.

For a 3rd party SW to view these [or any] files, my fav is LIST.COM by Vern Buerg.


If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
