If none of the solutions in this entire section work, follow the instructions in the next section to restore your original system files and then reinstall your optional equipment or software. Restoring original system files The root directory of your hard disk drive (C:\ ) contains the main files MS-DOS uses to configure your system: AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS. Your C:\ WINDOWS directory contains the initialization files Windows uses to configure your system: WIN.INI, SYSTEM.INI, and PROGMAN.INI.

You may want to return these files to their original contents and start over by using the backup versions stored on your computer's hard disk in the directory C:\ BACKUP. Caution Before you restore the original files, save your current files by renaming them with another file extension. Select new filenames that are not used by any other backup files, such as AUTOEXEC.NEW, CONFIG.NEW, and WININI.NEW. For instructions on renaming and copying files, and for more information about the main system files, see your MS-DOS or Windows manual or the on-line Help utilities.

If none of the solutions in this entire section work, follow the
instructions in the next section to restore your original system
files and then reinstall your optional equipment or software.
Restoring original system files
The root directory of your hard disk drive (C:\ ) contains the
main files MS-DOS uses to configure your system:
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS. Your C:\ WINDOWS
directory contains the initialization files Windows uses to
configure your system: WIN.INI, SYSTEM.INI, and
PROGMAN.INI.
If you have trouble using any optional equipment or software
you have installed, the problem may be caused by changes
made to these files. You may want to return these files to their
original contents and start over by using the backup versions
stored on your computer’s hard disk in the directory
C:\ BACKUP.
Caution
Before you restore the original files, save your current files
by renaming them with another file extension. Select new
filenames that are not used by any other backup files, such
as AUTOEXEC.NEW, CONFIG.NEW, and WININI.NEW.
For instructions on renaming and copying files, and for
more information about the main system files, see your
MS-DOS or Windows manual or the on-line Help utilities.
Copy the files from C:\ BACKUP to the following directories
and then reinstall your additional equipment and/ or software:
