- If i recall you can use the "Attrib" command to prevent/change
- writing to the autoexe on the "c" drive.
- I had to remove some lines from my autoexec.bat file
- so i had to change it "from read-only" ===> edit ===> "read only".
-
- NOTE
- There is some stuff in the files(either config.sys
- or autoexec.bat) on c that if you
- change your stacker drive "d" is gone/mush/dead.....
