Default Xp config.sys


I use a dos program and need to config.sys, how do I
locate msconfig in XP? Have tried Run: msconfig.sys and
does not bring me to where I need to go.

Copy the c:\Windows\System32\Config.nt file to the same directory as
your DOS program. Edit it to show the configuration you want, just as
you would in any MS-DOS operating system. Save them with a new name then
bring up the Properties dialog for the DOS program, click the Program
tab, and click the Advanced button. Enter the Config filename you
created for the program and Windows XP will run the program in its own
customized environment. This can also be done for autoexec.
