| Bring up the Boot Menu Automatically SUMMARY: Here's how to bring the boot menu up whenever you start your Windows 95 machine.
If you want the option to boot to DOS or to Safe Mode whenever you turn on your Windows 95 computer, first go to the DOS command prompt. Go to your root directory of your boot drive and enter this command.
ATTRIB -R -A -S -H MSDOS.SYS
Now, enter this command
EDIT MSDOS.SYS
This brings up the MSDOS editor. Under the "[Options]" section, if you see the line "BootMenu=0", change it to "BootMenu=1". If you do not see this line, add the line "BootMenu=1" directly under the "[Options]" line. Exit the MSDOS editor (Alt-F then X), and save the file. Now, enter this command.
ATTRIB +R +A +S +H MSDOS.SYS
And close the DOS command prompt.
