How would i go about editing and cleaning out some lines that are running on bootup through autoexec.bat?? Win98 system.
When i view autoexec through msconfig it shows me:
line1 : blank
line 2: rem - by windows network - c:\windows net start
line 3: blank w/pencil sign
line 4: blank w/pencil sign
when i view it through notepad it shows me a bunch of code and stuff. When i go to dos and type edit (pathtofile) autoexec.bat it shows me the same gobbled code that i see through notepad. Lines that actually are running on bootup i only see through msconfig.
I know little about autoexec. I've tried google searches but so far no real answers.
When the pc boots up it's trying to scan for boot viruses using a program that it does not have. It displays a series of errors and then hangs for 2 minutes before starting windows.
Any ideas???
